Bill,
The first TB that we did works quite well with the JET chip, it is just the
big bore TB that needs additional fuel. I just ran my truck on the dyno
today and at WOT,
fuel air ratio from approx. 2,500 through 4,700 RPM was right around 14:1
(way to lean for power). Even with the lean condition, horsepower figures
were way up.
230 vs. 201 at the rear wheels. The stage I TB will probably be the best
choice for people not wanting the additional expense of the other mods
necessary to make
the big bore one work correctly.
