E-Series VansTechnical discussion of topics related to vans powered by any of the Navistar engines. This covers a broad number of years, but there isn't enough demand to split it any further.
and how do you like it...I have an appt with Jody tomorrow and I was thinking of adding the higher hp program into hi-idle/safe tow/80 econo programs I ran on the 98...
My conservative side says: you don't really need this concentrate of fuel milage and long life
My other side says: go ahead its only a few bucks extra and it will be fun smoking the ricers at the stop lights [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]
I don't have it yet, but let me know how you like it. That is my same thoughts also. The extra little bit of money for that big of a thrill is too good to pass up.

For a short burst its ok.
I cannot run anything more than an 80 tune.
Wish i had an intercooler.

Ditto this... I have the 100 tune and I never use it, though it's not much different than the 80 econo, except for the shifting. As it is, I can't even use all of the 80 due to heat. I thought about getting the 120, but figured I would need more engine mods to use it, so I went with the 100. I might switch them one day if I get a chance, but it doesn't really matter.

hey ,SIX i got the 120 program i have only used for about 30 or 45 second burts but it is KILLER i need to install some guages so i can moniter the EGT's but the van really moves when you hit the 120 my brother who own a ERA cobra with a 428 stroker was dumbfounded when he was put back in his seat in a van that weighs about 3 1/2 times his kitcar but i do agree with Bill i think it is best to use in short burts , my van has had a bad rear from day one noisey bearings from factory i am afraid if i push it it will let go , i did not take it back under warrranty because in past experience dealers only tend to cause more damage than good and very seldom in my experiernce fix the problem , but i plan to replace the bearings and install an arb air locker or an eaton electic locker soon. i would get it,Wade

My tow 40 is quicker than the econo 80.(& it'll leave a thunder-cloud)My kids think it's real funny to smoke out people. Gotta have Jody tweek the 80 when in his neiborhood. He said anything higher would need more modding for enough fuel delivery.
Do you have part numbers for that intake? Did you relocate the battery to the frame rail?

Yeah what he said....(hijacking my own thread here)....did you relocate the battery to the frame rail?

Looks like it. See pics at webshots in his sig. Nice set up. Looks like you would have room for the Tymar style filter.

Sorry about the hijack Sixiron, Just the joys of Adult ADD (Look a bird) Is your Appt with Jody today or yesterday? Fill me in on the outcome. I am on the same track only 20 or so hours from him, so I am on my own.

Econo = stock shiftpoints.
Tow = Higher shiftpoints.
Race = ?
Extr = ?
Shift should be 1,2,3,lock tc,4. Non PWM.
Don't know when PWM is at full lock?
I use the 60 Tow pane and lock TC manually after/during 2 gear shift.

Where is your AIT sensor. Have you tested temps, (traffic/Hwy ect) compared to ambient? Is your dyno runs with the intake? I tryied one like yours and it hurt the power.
Do you have part numbers for that intake? Did you relocate the battery to the frame rail?

Sorry, old pics. That intake was home made and WAY too small. Made of ricer parts [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
I now have a DIY 4" intake with AFE filter. I'll try to post some updated pics soon.
And yes, all my batteries are mounted on the frame rail.
