    School me on 100 and 110 octane

    Just found a local station that sells 100 and 110 octane fuel. What would be the pros and cons and which would perform better in a built truck with a 3.4 and all the supporting mods? I would run a mixture of 93 along with whatever choice you guys recommend. Thanks in advance guys!!

    Guys w/ gauges & an E-fan...WTH??

    Where in the heck are you guys mounting your sending unit for the water coolant temp if you already have an E-fan sending unit in the block plug?? I've tried to use that plug and tapped into the gauge cluster unit but the temp skyrockets to 250 degrees when its hooked up. Obviously something is...

    Bassani + long bars =no good

    What have you guys successfully done to eliminate the rattling on the Bassani exhaust and LFP long bars. I've adjusted the exhaust and lowered the frame bracket a little. Maybe my C-notch is making it worse than it is. Short of taking it to an exhaust shop, I'm at a loss. Any ideas I'm not...

    Whatcha guys think of this?

    Check out my newest underhood mod, besides the new Whipple of course. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics as my camera is missing in action in my garage somewhere.

    3.4 Whipple/Monster SPECIFIC vacuum diagram

    I know I'm reading more into this than I should, but this vac line hook up is kicking my tail. :??: The Whipple instructions pretty much suck. Why they use the 2.3 instructions for the 3.4 is beyond me. :fm: The pics you guys have posted have been awesome, but what is plucking my nerves is...

    Finally, my 3.4 build!

    After about 5 months of having these things, it is time for me to slap them on. Easier said than done though. I'm doing a few other things at the same time, so I'm not going to rush into it. Here are some pics, but the parts that aren't pictured are the SCT Xcal 3, aeromotive fuel regulator...

    Dash pieces and Huskyliner floor mats

    Just installed the black Harley dash and now these factory L pieces serve me no purpose. The bezel around the speedo cluster also has the hole and switch for the adjustable pedals as an added bonus. All are in great shape. No broken tabs of any kind. The Huskyliners do great at keeping...

    Hey guys, Here is an update of my progress of my C notch. It seems like everyone is lowering their L's now. :beer: Congrats to us all. Some fear the cutting of the frame and others have already done so. I want to thank Steven at MM Customs for the opportunity at the kit. He is a great...

    Yet another console/black carpet install....*pics*

    Here is another, thanks to Eric (Ride The) install of the infamous center console (his newest style I may add), black carpet, and a layer of Dynamat before hand. Plus two rear speakers and I re-upholstered the rear panel with black suede to even things out. Next, I'm off to get the surfboard...

    Ford is canning the 4.6/5.4 motors??

    WTF?! Maybe this is old news, but it looks like Ford is getting rid of the motors past 2011. This popped up in my new magazine that arrived today. It was according to PickupTrucks.com. They are bringing back in a new more powerful motor in terms of the 5.0L motors, but from the "Coyote"...

    Leaky snout....

    Anyone ever have an Eaton leak at the snout area?? :shrug:Mine just became predominantly louder at idle two days ago. I had home ported the Eaton, filled in the silencer holes, painted the case and slapped it back in the L. This was roughly about a month ago. The motor sound always overcame the...

    Thunderform style speaker box

    I have what looks to be a speaker box similar to the MTX Thunderform box. It looks like a hand made box, has 2-8" Eclipse speakers, a Rockford Fosgate amp (800.2) and two neon lights above the amp. It is in great shape. It was unhooked when I bought the truck as it had the stock radio in it...

    Hey guys, just wondering if anyone is or has ran the Sportsman S/R tires on their Ls?? After 9 months my NT555Rs are not good for the street so to speak, my other NT555Rs are a wall decoration, the Eagle F1s I feel suck, and the other Good Years I had on my other L didn't do that great...

    Need a pic of an aux idler kit...

    Hey guys, just recently acquired a Polished Moto Blue Idler bracket and pulley from Lightning Larry and am needing a pic of someone that may already have one installed for reference.
