Auburn GearLSD & 4.56 gears


Well, I just paid off thecredit card from round #2, so I guess it's time for round #3.
Went by KRC Performance yesterday for a game plan andcame awaythinking...
1) Flex-O-Lite Black Magic Fan
2) Pacesetter Long Tube Headers (ceramic coated)
3)KRC 210 Hemi Camshaft
Split Second ARC 1 fuel controller
Comp Beehive springs
Titanium Retainer
ATI Super Damper

In those three steps...

Opinions? Does anybody have a similar set-up that could chime in?

Dude at KRC showed me dynos of a '05 he set up this way and HP gains were 90+ over stock with similarly impressive torque numbers...

Sounds like an awesome setup. I am running the Comp Cam 268 and I love it! I am not familiar with the KRC Products first hand but I have heard good things about them. It sounds like you will have one bad *** truck! I know from experience that your doing it right,the drive train needs to be able th handle the power first, so KUDOS on the lockers and gears!! you will need to look into tranny upgrades soon, thats a lot of power you are going to make! good luck and keep us posted!

Yea, tranny (torque converter, etc.) was discussed and will probably be up for next year's mods, when I, hopefully, have this years mods paid for.

I know the feeling when it comes to paying for all the goodies! I am lucky I guess, I can work 7 days a week 12 hours a day if I want to. If I want new goodies I just work more. (of corse the ol'lady gets her cut, shes worse than the government) But I look on the bright side, she will be out of college in the spring (again,thats twice I have put her through school) and will rejoin the work force. Then it will all be gravey and biscuits!! Hmmm, sts turbo??

I'm very intrested in the Fan Mod, it's another one of those "Well that makes sense to me" kinda things.

BTWI have a buddy that liveson my block withthe exact same Truck and Mods as you have!

He has to be held accountable for getting me into mod mode.

He sure does have a purdy Truck tho.

Since you seem to show such interest in my mods, I'll try to snap pics as well as keeping you posted here...
Or you can get off your lazy a_s and walk 100' up the road...

BTW -- We will have to get the two trucks closer and take a snapshot & post that pic. That would be my 3 favoite colors - Black, Red & Chrome...
