Mason,
That's great to hear! I'd be interested in hearing how the dyno run goes. I hope it's the M1 (I have a new M1 sitting in a box that I plan on using some day). Awesome mileage, much better than the 11-12 I get with my old 5.9. What exhaust you going with? I've got mandrel bent 3" Magnaflow single exit exhaust on mine and I'm happy with it.

M1? the only thing I've done really is the intake plenum plate and a Superchip tune. My 5.9 is a screamer too. 4.11 gears

I'm doing 15-16 mpg instead of 12-13 with the 5.2 and having way more fun I'm still under the factory exhaust so when I get that modded , I'll hit the dyno and see whats there . IMO right now , I got the 375 engine . I have 2 100lb sand bags in the rear to keep the wheels from spinning so much , lol . Winter will be a hoot an a half ,
More power and mpg to boot! Where'd you get your crate engine from?

Default 98 & 99

I've had an improvement since the 98 tune up about 5 months
ago, 13.6 mpg no load. The 99 diesel, no load right at 17mpg's.
The 98 now has about 152k on the engine and the 99 about 261k.
