    I back them off to .060 and have seen no problems. We are also seeing small fuel milage gains by doing this.

    i didn't notice any dif but reason is that the shop that did my last overhead backed them off to about 060. called them today they said been doing it for awhile just like coal bucket said if anything it puts lees stress on the rockers . my ? is i see that you can delete egr's and dpf's now why can't we have are acuators deleted?

    You can get rid of the actuators with enough money and know how.

    Are the engines that through a check engine lights 120 pin processor's
    or are there some 70 pin too?
