    I didn't realize a Coyote intake manifold would fit on a 5.4 4V motor. That's a one of a kind build for sure! That low bracket for the 4 link set-up, and loud exhaust would drive me nuts, but as long as it tears up the track it'd be worth it though.

    Thanks for sharing this video. It was a good explanation of what was going on. The low RPM fuel pressure seemed low to me for a mod motor. It also looks like he had -6 fuel lines off of the pressure regulator. I'd think that at this power level -8 or larger would be needed. I'm not hating, just surprised that it ran so well the way it was. Good job.

  • @LosDoyerss

    Isn't that Boss 302 intake manifold going to hold it back from putting up big numbers? That's going to restrict the turbo. He needs a custom made sheet metal one.

    split the afr command/avg into left and right banks. Its dangerous imho to not see afr separately. Its how to double check that your fuel is equal and not leaning out one bank or the other.

    The rear tyre is on the wrong way around, maybe the wheels are on the wrong side either way check the rotation markings.

    Hey Andrew I'm a lightning owner running the 2v trickflow with built shortblock which will be finished by MHS soon and was checking out the Holley ECU. I'll be around 750 wheel hp when done on e85. I'll still drive it on 93 occassionally. I really liked the flexibly and have never tuned before what would you suggest to learn how to tune and get to where I can eventually do it all myself?

    • @AnthonySvt_
      @AnthonySvt_ 5 років тому

      Jared Tillman start with a car that’s not that built like your lightning don’t wanna blow it (I’m not a tuner but I dont think you want your truck to blow a motor

    • @andrewlavender08
      @andrewlavender08  5 років тому +3

      Jared Tillman definitely get the Holley Ecu. There are a lot of threads online concerning Holley efi that will walk you through the entire tuning process. I would read through all of those threads and possibly take a few tuning classes if you can afford it.

    I don't like it. Stock 2003 L owner. I just don't like it, it is not what it's supposed to sound like. Mine has always ran rich.
    I am so upset that I let a mechanic touch it in MKE. "But stock boost is 8 psi". It has always done 12psi.
    Buy one of these if you can; but be able to do everything on it.

      PimoAn01 it was not originally a 5.4 2v block the heads don’t swap over if I remember correctly might be a gt500 motor or a 5.4 4v from a navigator
