Hint, it is not the hump in the middle that is converter lockup. One pull is street tune 14psi. The second pull is 18psi race.

Nope, leaning out. The customer said he upgraded the fuel system but I am a little suspicious as to what the injectors really are. As soon as it hits 500rwhp it just starts clipping max duty cycle and goes lean.

Would that be considered a problem truck:evil

The customer is very lucky the engine is still in one piece. He has been racing it on a mail order tune and has pullies up to 22psi. We are changing injectors Tuesday and giving it another shot.

Wow, I can't believe the difference in 55lb vs 60lb injectors.. 55's maxed out at 500rwhp on this truck.. The 60's have room for about 20-22psi off the KB and built motor.

Hmm, multiply your injector by 10 and that is rouchly the HP it is good for:D .

Even on a stock block? Like me;)

Data log the injector duty cycle. This truck the cycle was declining as rpms rose. With the 60's the duty cycle is linear not peaking or humping over. This is a ported head and larger cam so we are flowing a shatload of air. 18psi on this motor is probably 22-24psi on a stock block..

and you wondered why I wanted to go 60's over the 50-55's ;)
