    Amazing. I've seen 330 miles projected on a new tank. Not close to 370. That's great.

    Well I can tell you on my one way 300 mile trip to pick up my new trailer, dude pulls hills way better . I went over mt. hood this morning, obviously with no trailer and zoomed right over the pass . As of now I'm gonna be heading over mt hood with my new trailer 1600lbs

    With the spacer is there enough slack on hoses etc. to maintain everything else stock?

    And those mileage #’s with your setup is impressive? I’d say KDMAX tune has a lot to do with it. I know my truck is benefiting from it! AA1C541C-180F-4A44-964B-45996EF037D5.jpg

    Putting my manifold spacer on tomorrow. I plan on doing a thread showing the installation of it.
    Be on the lookout.

    The spacer helped a lot for keeping good rpms she held steady on steep grades . I got down to 3rd gear holding 55 to 60 mph one time but it was pretty steep and pulling the trailer.

    Yeah I'm 100% sure all my performance mods are what get me my good mpgs . Dyno results are not 100% though. I didn't have gear lock flashed so results are not best they can .

    @PapaRee do you think there’s a benefit to reflashed every time the Fuel blend at the pump changes from different seasons? Just curious…

    I have the rear cats deleted , stock exhaust, ripp performance coils, afe throttle body spacer, k&n performance intake with Blackhawk synthetic dry filter, oil catch can , recently added oil catch can on passenger valve cover, run premium 92 octane , change my oil every 5k mi or less, service my transmission once a year regardless of miles , service all gear oil including transfer case once a year regardless of miles , stock gearing , and run a tank of Chevron fuel system cleaner every 3k mi. I think that covers about all of it.

    No benefit, but if you have the vftuner software and the files (like you :thumbsup:) I would. The truck is constantly learning/adjusting, so a fresh flash of the tune gives it a fresh start.

    So out of 600 miles round trip I was getting 20mpg on my trip to bend Oregon. Used a tank and a half about $151 in gas.

    I do not clear the learned values unless there is a problem. But some people do it every time they flash their truck. It’s up to you.
