Mine was at a safe a/f before the port job on the Apten. After the port job, it was dangerous lean. But that has been addressed

Great question.......
When I joined the zoo crew last summer in a tune with Diablo I pulled 496/562 - this is running with a KB and 16lbs boost. All the other goodies re mods on a stock lower.
The tuner Willie, told me that I had maxed my stock 42lb injectors and yes I have the dual 255 fuel pumps. He said that if I moved to 50's or 55's I would be in the 520 hp range (but why risk it on a stock lower, so I never went that direction). He also said that I could lower my boost to help the injectors feed the engine. Go figure that one out.

I'm just going to powdercoat my mag and intake both black and go with the sleeper look, only if I could just get hear not to scream so loud that is......

If your really concerned with high HP fuel delivery, Id run an upgraded line and pump kit like this one. Tommy will have them soon.

We have seen many trucks able to achive great numbers on stock this and that but as we all know it's just a matter of time.
