I guess you could call it knocking. tnx again.

Thank you guys! Ok, the ticking pretty much started after I had the work done. I can feel it on the floorboard a bit but at first when I heard it you couldnt feel it. Yes it ticks with the RPM, doesnt go away. Had the lifters checked twice, same as valves, injectors, etc... It was running good...

I am from Orange County, CA. The noise is coming from the engine. sounds like its pretty central. I have had the valves, lifters, injectors, etc.. all checked out and he told me that all looks normal. When he asked me if I wanted him to rip open the motor and investigate deeper I declined.

Hello. I bought a syclone #289 about 3 months ago that had been sitting for years. It has 35,900 miles on it and is in nice shape. I spent 11,000.00 on the truck... since it had been sitting I knew it could use some updating. So, I spent about 3,300.00 on getting it all back to new condition...

Hey bud... Its Morgan. I need to meet up with you asap to swap back the chips. The one we put in that one day has that lag so I want to put my old ones back in. Im going to sell the Sy. :cry: I dont want to but I need the cash now. I have tried calling you but I dont think your number works...

Whoa, thats really wierd. I just bought #289 from that guy.

but it doesnt clunk in any other gears... only when im about to come to a stop.

what kind of gains can you expect with the ATR system? Does a highflow cat help too?

ok thanks kwick... i can get 92 octane but its like 30 miles away. is it worth the 1 octane difference or should I just buy some of that octane booster in a can? also, I took the truck to jiffylube and had them change everything: fuel filter, air filter, oil (synthetic), radiator flushed, the...
