    Born and raise here in Commiefornia, all family is here. Great weather all year around, gorgeous “seat covers” :p also….. it’s a big sacrifice but what can I say, everything comes at a price, turning 60 next week and been at this for 42 plus….. and hopefully have another 15 left in me….

    Could be why it didn't use any fuel

    Either change the back box or you could probably turn main 9spd to a 9 over. Top two holes are reversed. If you did that the under drive on the split would probably be welcomed.

    Ok ol slow down hoss lol

    So how easy is this to accomplish or perhaps help me find the right search criteria. I've been looking how to convert 13spd ud to od. Apparently that isnt it lol.

    Right now top gear direct and 60 mph is about 2000 rpm. I wad told the truck would do 84 at 25 2600 rpm but he only took it up there once to see where the limit was..for what thats worth lol. I need that od. !

    That isnt from bad injectors, it is a factor of the cam timing and 14:1 compression that a 676 would have, it will likely smoke at an idle with new injectors.

    Well #### lol. I can live with the white smoke as long as its not an issue. Does it need to be retarded to clean it up?

    No, it needs left alone, if it comes time to rebuild then you can raise compression.

    Honestly it is hard to tell when the last time the overhead was ran, that can clean up some of it.
