    Just remember my rating is too the wheels 1 gr without a tune on a dyno is only putting like 170 to the wheels if that @Torspd might know the stock dyno numbers on a 1gr?

    That's true, I forgot to take into account the HP difference between the crank and the wheels.

    Do you have any intentions of adding more psi and see what kind of numbers you can get?

    Always thought, for me, a stock 4.0 in a Reg. cab would be the ultimate Taco. My little 2.7 auto is a really sick puppy.

    You've been running comfortably on stock internals for a couple years now, yeah?
    Yeah, the 2.7 auto would definitely go bye-bye real quick for me. I agree, I think a 4.0 would be perfect for it, but at the same time, part of me wants to do something a little more fun. My daily driver is a Tundra, so I'm not in any rush to try and get myself back on the road.

    Well, so far I have gotten ZERO response from about 5 different motor shops. Apparently I'm going to have to start making phone calls instead of trying to use their e-mail quotes.

    I've also found a couple used motors and trannys really really close to me, so that's a plus.
