well im pretty sure its not a magnum, considering it came off a 1gn with a non magnum intake manifold. (but if it was a magnum the intake mani would have made it to the scrap pile then my truck)
SIDENOTE: stealings BAD i was obviously kidding. :thumbup:


today i made this rear section, and my mtx pcm came in thanks to neon-god (unfortunatly i didnt get a free dimebag as advertised :(). and. thats about it.

Then it's special. But the 2gns that had metal VCs were known as magnum VCs. Not sure on 1gns.

I didn't read the 1gn part.

Yeah 1GN valvecover > 2GN valvecover, better PCV placement, even better than the Magnum one.

sullivan, why are you switching the PCM again? I think we talked about it a month or two ago, didn't we?
Drive it like you stole it, and work on it like you married it.

i do not beleive we did sir... lol buttt in a a quick explanation, im too lazt to take apart one of the 3spd`s i have sitting here and take out the T Convertor lockup solenoid. to plug it in so i wotn throw a code, and the atx pcm will hold the revs alot longer.

also i wanna do this so its basically factory, so i felt the mtx pcm was a must!

greeneon ill get back to you tommorow i cant open the inbox for some reason it just makes the browser close :(

and thanks supertrick... i sat there for like 3 min pondering a title n im like FUCKKK outloud then i was like thats it!...

also tonigght i seen a srt-d.. accept in canada its called an SXT-D lolz

So how did you disable the neutral switch so you could rev past 4K?

basically it wont rev past 4k in neutral, but this being a LUK clutch i dont wanna be to hard on it anyways. today at my co-op (mechanic) i used X-Cal on the atx computer do disable the Tourque convertor lockup solenoid this way i dont have a code.

and anyone wanting solid mounts. i need to see how these work, and come up with an alighnment system. im also super pumped about the warmer weather!

ok you know where the drivers side cv shaft is right? ok now remove the battery tray, and you will see it directly above the cv shaft on the back of the transmissioon. it looks like a plug with a plate on it. remove 1 8mm bolt to take it off.
