gets expensive-learning the hard way

[lit549]

ive got alot in this truck and you cant tell it by looking at it,mostly cause doing things two or three times till i think ive got it right,still wondering if i should goto 350turbo or glide. this truck sounds great but it just wont go like i think it should,missing something somewhere!?:confused:

[rudedogg]

If you are a street driver use the t350 if you are an all out race-truck go glide.

[lit549]

well i do both but more street,it has 400 in it now.its not my sole transportation though.

[HAM1974]

what rear gears you have?

[harleyboy]

MAN I HAVE A 700R4 AND MINE DOES FINE i CAN USE IT IN BOTH WAYS AND WHEN I DO RACE THE STREET NOT HAVING A HARD TIME BEATING THEM.

[HAM1974]

also check throttle cable adjustment,if your not getting full throttle that could be a problem?

[adh383]

Stay with the 400 trans. Look else-where for power. Like Ham said, what gear are you running?

[HardinValleyMagic]

I agree a million percent with the throttle adjustment. Mine wasn't opening up all the way when I first got it. As you could guess that problem has since been fixed.

373 richmond gears with 26-9 et slicks.so its pretty low final gear with the tires and all.ill check the cable again and see.i need too rewire it too, i really dont like the way its wired.ill get some pics up,i just put it back the way they had it before and been too lazy too tackle it yet.i know that when i put this motor in with the mallory ign it;it just quit running one day. i finally had to put extra ground wire from cab too frame and it started right up,floating ground i guess.pain in the rear too figure that one out ;took forever

i would put a th-350 in it cause of the th-400 robbin power from you and is heavier than the th-350. thats my opinion
