I think it is leveled, I want to check to see if so. It has 285's on it, but it does look high.

Thanks Cory, It should be good once it's all gone through. Not liking the hood scoop stick on things, so those may have to go as well...

I agree those stick on scoops look exactly like they sound. Looks like you might need a GTG to get all that stuff done.

Yeah, that's a first of many things to go I think. I like the hood scoop look, but only if it was real...

Yeah it seems to sit higher in the front then mine with the same size tires. Yeah I am not a fan of the stick on scoops either.

Hey Lee!! How are you doing today? I just finished watching the race and that is about it so far.

Well it seems as the Bully Dog controller that is in there is a stock, 50, 100 tuner. I have to learn more about it.

It seems the fuel gauge is not accurate though. It died and won't restart. Now I have the guy I traded bringing me the key for the fancy fuel door he forgot to give me! LOL

Haven't really gotten to mess with it today though. Just been to much else going on...

Well that sucks Dave! Hopefully it wont be too much of a bugger to get started once you get fuel in it. It can be a pain if air gets into the lines. Are there any extra gauges in it at all?

No extra gauges no, I did keep my Edge Insight and EGT probe. Assuming it will work with the 7.3...

Hopefully it will be easy. We will see...

Yeah I would assume it would work on the 7.3. I guess you will find out soon enough.

Yep, that is part of the plan. I can't see why it wouldn't either...

I wonder if it can read the trans temp though. Oh wait your '02 should have the trans gauge in it although it is not much better then an idiot light but I wonder if the sensor can read actual temps?

It could in the 6.0, I don't know if it will in this. If it does it will be the back side temp after it's cooled...

Yeah I guess a little research would have to be done on that one.

Are the 7.3s doomed for injector problems when you run low on fuel like the 6.0s?
