    pros or cons fords 6.8l v 10

    :dWe put the V10s on propane more octane 105+ 13to14 mpg, good power. With propane you can afford to drive more and pulling power is great. I was at my local Ford dealer today talking about a Ford. I am not sure what I am going to do. I am a GM fan but don't like the 6.0L (bad heads) (Intake...

    I don't do any older vehicles because in B.C. they won't pass and we are the bad guy's. Nothing older than 2005 and not over 100000km. We are the only guy's in town to inspect propane units you can't get your propane unit inspected from a guy with out his building being certified. If you do you...

    Things to make sure you have in your Camper

    spray for your can, nothing like that smell on a rainy day (mine don't stink) how are yours HA HA. Rubber gloves to drain your black water, a funnel to add water to your water tank just in case you run out of water also a plug to plug in an rv plug and to plug the other way (only my 2 cents)

    Performance Chip for 1500 Sierra 5.3L

    Yes!! Go with an exhaust, I went on my 05 GM 5.3L flow pro and removed my cats I had to put a resinator in order to remove the drone at 2000 to 3000 rpm. More power and fuel economy truck sounds great 3 of my buddys have done the samething.

    5.3L to a 6.0L

    My 5.3L is the aluminum block with 310hp 9.9:1 comp and 6L heads. My new holiday trailer is 6000lbs dry and the truck works pulling it, But it pulls @ 110km on the hiway hills kill me only 75km to 90km I think the only way is to go to a bigger truck.
