i have done noting with the computer really i had a guy play with it a bit but i really dont know what he did i really would like to get a chip made but i don't know anyone that can do it for me. the guy at the dino shop said that it was a bit odd that i had that power at 3500 he aslo told me there may be more in the engine. honestly i know the AF ratio is off.
Ben i would never do all the work i did agien it's to much money for honestly not that much power gain. the engine hates cold weather (we live in canada) the cam profile is a bit to big. the gas mileage is not really what i had hoped for 11km/L. i runs well on premium gas only and synthitc oil is not cheap so oil changes suck.
the CR is around 10:1 i belive ??
lastly if i had the chioce agian i would go 4.9 100 time over with a muncie trany
the isuzu trany sucks hard to shift and i dont like the gearing

been there....
holly intake and throttle body
big valves and porting
crane cam
free flowing exhaust
18 psi fuel pres
play with timming

this combo would eat any stock v6, but cost more than my 1st 4.3 250 hp conversion

and threw 2 rods because didnt keep an eye on the oil (my bad)
