How is your tune?

And I keep telling people the Air Gap is hardly any different than the M1 and nobody listens. There is a small low end loss but a good tune and a few other parts will bring it back and then some, the Mopar PCM did the trick for my truck, way more low end than stock.

in the process of buying one right now.

Yeah low end is bad this is from the magazine and I quote "Even though the MPH was down only a bit from our best-ever, the 60-foot times really sucked"

" Hughes is right. Around 4500 RPM, the mill (Stock keger) is pulling hard, but by 5000-5200, it's like, "who pulled the plug?""

Its a truck you dont need anything above 5 grand unless you are going to race. And I am not.

Stock is sounding better all the time on the intake...other than the pan gasket still being there, of course. Someone has probably discussed or tried this, but I wonder if a guy couldn't get a junk yard stock intake, remove plenum pan, clean it all up, and epoxy the pan to the intake. Then turn it right side up and pour water in and see if it leaks at all. Put the bolts back in prior of course. And get the water out before putting it on your motor. Am I insane? Am I a genius? I dunno, been a long day and I'm doped up on allergy stuff. Sorry if I got off topic.

There was one member that was talking about welding it up..... seems to me, that would be a rather permanent fix. Not like there is any reason to be in there..... (like certain central port injection motors I could name.....)
