We have been selling alot of the SCT systems, and on average a 11 or 12 mpg truck is going up to about 17 or 18. I have a local ford tech that wants 4 of the Spartan systems. I know Matt is going crazy this week shipping. I hope to have one to install by the weekend. Matt says his 6.4 went from 12 to 20 mpg on the highway. Plus the gauge package with the DashDaq is sweet. If it wasnt for the grill on the new trucks Id probably get one. Matt also showed me dyno runs of 565hp 1039 ftq. Those are nice numbers.

Can you put the old 99-07 Super duty front clip on them? I was looking at them and its looks like correct me if im wrong but just the front clip, mirrors and tailgate are different? and well obviously the interior

They have a totally different "inner fender / frame work" going on in those trucks. I dont think you could do it without a welder and plasma cutter lol. The tailgates switch to the 99-07 trucks, and I have customers with the mirrors already done though.

What is the max power the torqueshift will handle in stock form? Rough guestimate, I know but we always say 70-85 on an Allison so I was wondering about the Ford tranny.

Hey Trey
Nothing about the Ford but the Crossfire SRT6 is doing sweet, should have it to about 440 at the crank by the end of the week:ihih:

About the radiator, my cousin sells fords(bless his heart, can't convert him) and he said there was problems with the radiators on the fords. Other than that how do you like the truck?

I'm gald to hear some one that is saying they are having no problems with their 6.4L. You hear of so many issues. I have talked a a couple of guys at work that have the new 6.4's and they have anywhere from 30-50k miles on them so far, without any issues. Just your basic service. I have looked at one recently (since the dealership is willing to give me the most for my '06) and the styling has really grown on me. I like the big rig look of the front grill and like the interior as well. I have also looked at an '08 GMC D'max and really like that as well. I will let you know if I decide on a new one or keep mine.

Yes this is my second one.. The first one had 17K miles on it. So far the new one has about 1300 as of today on it.. Don't drive it much as of now because between the wife and I we have 3 other cars... So really it just gets driven on the weekends..

So you're the one that's been bashing GM and GM trucks over at the diesel stop?? :hand:
No, don't think so. I have spoken my opinion on a few things but not sure about the bashing aspect..:smilewinkgrin:

In all seriousness.
Your Mileage isn't that bad compared to a few I've heard. Mainly keep your foot out of it. :thumbsup:

On the 6.4 Power Stroke, that seems to be par for the course for highway mpg's. I know city numbers as low as 8-10 mpg. How many miles do you have on it? Break in period for a diesel is somewhere around 6000- 8000 miles. I know with my LMM, I'm getting around 18 mpg doing 70 mph highway. Makes you give more thought to getting rid of the DPF.
