The Fire Burns Again...

The Fire Burns Again...
The Big Red Machine breathed it's first breath since last November today. Even with the monster 160 lb injectors, it fired right up with the initial tune I set it up with. Of course it will need to be completely retuned from scratch, but that's why I'm the best Lightning tuner in the business . It felt good to hear it run again. The new exhaust is awesome. The massive Procharger screams at idle (reminds me of my ATI powered Gen 1). I swear it was telling me to feed it cats and small children. There is still tons to do on the truck and lots of little bugs to work out before it sees track duty, so don't expect any new ETs in the next week or so. Just wanted to share my joy .

Oh, BTW, something else I wanted to mention...
I blew up my radiator and had to replace it for leaking. The replacement Ford radiator was twice as thick as the original. On my original radiator, if you look at the top (with the air deflector off) you see how wide the aluminum strip is, but if you feel behind it, the core is only about half that thick. The new radiator was the full thickess. Thought that was worth mentioning.

Are you saying that there is more cooling tubes in the replacement?
