99 Dodge no power
#11
I’m not sure what exact horsepower is for these years all I can do is research. This is for a 99 Dodge Ram 1500
Uh, the 5.7 put out 345 hp when it came out in 03 and has 395hp in 4th gens. That's anywhere from 115-165 more horses than the 230 claimed at the crank.
Look for stickers on the rad support and pcm that say "dealer authorized update" or something like that. Chances are, its deathflash but it's not as bad as it seems. All I noticed when I had a tuner was it kept speed better but the trade off is terrible pinging.
285s are 33s. Well, 32.8 anyway. That's what I run with 3.55 gears but I have the stick which has different gearing than the auto. Either way, mine could barely move 265s so I went up and have run three sets of 285s in the last nine years.
These trucks aren't fast. They have good torque though for their size. When I tow, I barely can tell a difference when running empty.

I’m hoping to get mine to tow better, she really doesn’t have any power climbing over the pass here. 25mph max down shifting to get up to 35mph then just back to 25..it’s just frustrating thanks for all your help.
