Those are 7.3 mods researched by coonhunterjoe in the 94.5 - 97 forum. I'd go there and search or post a thread on it. Those who have done the mods have had good results, but if you already have a chip the mod may have no effect.

Project I'm working on right now is installing a new carburetor and changing the fluid in the transmission. Unfortunately, the carb I picked up from a friend is only a 600cfm, and not the 750 he said it was. Going to have to upgrade that again when I get the chance.

What size motor and mods do you have in most cases 600cfm is more then sufficient unless heavily modified

Its a 1987 F250 with a 460ci. I suppose 600cfm is fine for now, as it is stock, but I wanted to prepare for future upgrades. I got the new Edelbrock installed. It will run for about a minute and a half and then the idle will drop until it dies. Not really sure what's going on. And there seems to be a lot of misty smoke coming out of the carb? I mostly work with FI, so this carbureted stuff is new to me.
EDIT: I joined the chapter, thanks guys. I didn't realize you had to click on that link first. I mostly troll around looking up information, and don't post a whole lot. I really hope I can get my truck running before the meet... would be silly if I showed up in my car.

I guess that the 6.0 H.tech won't do a whole lot for a 7.3.
I swapped out my CPS for the first time yesterday, is it me or does my truck acually run a little better?
