    Curious About Power

    The reason I am asking is because a brother of mine bought a brand new 05 DuraMax a couple of months ago. I have not driven it yet, but have ridden in it and it is a nice truck. He does not know if he will do any upgrades or not as he is worried about voiding the warranties, and at 325 hp and...

    Curious About Power

    I had a '93 non turbo F-250 and I think the advertised power was 190 hp. I now have a '99 F-250 PSD and was wondering if anyone knows what its advertised power and torque rating is. Is there a published source with that kind of information? Thanks, Chips200

    TC Lock-up Mod Question

    Just completed and tested the T/C lock-up mod and it works great! This will be a very nice mod since I tow a 9500 lb toybox in the mountains at times. Next will be the EBV brake mod (once I find out what the heck it is!). I put the switch and LED on the lower dash to the right of the...

    Tranny Fluid Prices

    This WAS at an Auto Zone!! Checker did not even carry it and Napa is not known for their low prices. We have 2 more auto stores in town, but they are owned by the same people and are also not known for low prices. The Walmart which has about everything in auto lubrication did not carry it...

    Tranny Fluid Prices

    Ford_Forgotton, thanks for the detailed instructions. Unfortunately, the parts supply store only had 6 qts of Mobil 1 Dextron III/ Mercon (not the V) in stock so I had to order the rest. I am ordering 18 more quarts for a total of 24 quarts since my new PML aluminum oil pan increases the amount...

    Tranny Fluid Prices

    My truck is an early '99 so I must have a T/C drain plug, but I do not have a tool. Also, the new PML aluminum pan I am using adds another 3.5 quarts, so I will be using 23.5 quarts doing it JimmyDees way. I thought about using Redline, but I cannot find it locally and I need to do the job this...

    Tranny Fluid Prices

    I had the fluid changed about 400 mi ago at a shop and then took it back because the pan was leaking. They said that the stock pans will start leaking after a while (I have 129,000 mi on this truck) and they could replace it with an upgraded pan for $120 plus fluid and labor. I decided to order...

    LCPThrill, I had the wire installed to the grey plug location before I read your post. Is there anything wrong with going to the grey plug? Thanks! Chips2000
