I figured since I was heading out east to do some visiting, that I would bring some E85 to test and compare.

I’m down to around 1000ft of elevation and went for a drive last night with a e20 blend.

It was pretty warm and humid, but the truck still runs considerably stronger. 4#/min more air and still hitting 20* of timing.

0-60 without any boost launching is a flat 5 seconds according to the logs. I couldn’t boost launch in 4hi, because it would spin and buck.

Cool stuff, it would be cool to get Dyno numbers at this elevation, but no opportunity where I am.

Sounds like good problems... time to relocate

Did you mention what your airflow numbers were on the dyno? Or street? And was it 4# higher at peak or pretty much the whole curve?

I'm comparing 3rd gear last night to 4th gear on the Dyno, so it's not exactly apples to apples.

If I look at 5500rpm where the truck made the most HP on the Dyno, the runs from last night show 47.38#/min vs. 44.73#/Min on the Dyno.

If I look at peak airflow last night was 54.1#/Min and peak on the Dyno was 48.04#/min.

Again, keep in mind that this is comparing 3rd on the street to 4th on the Dyno.

Elevation obviously makes a big difference.

I could not live in an area with that many bugs.

 

[Blown F-150]

That's accumulating bugs over the period of 20+ hours driving. But yes, there are way more than we have back where live.

We'll be making the 20+ hour trip back home starting tomorrow. Looks like a few things showed up while I was away. I hope to get the Fog lights in, rear bumper lights, Sync 3 and other speakers and finally a freshly painted rear Ford badge and Camera Bezel.

Truck ran like awesome on the way back. Ended up that the last 300 miles were in a pretty bad snow storm, so that was interesting with the 420s tires on. They did better than I would have expected, but some of that was probably due to the amount of payload.

I want to get a few things done this weekend, we'll see if I can sneak away after the kids are sleeping.

Spent most of the day getting the garage organized and playing outside with the family.

I managed to get a couple things done on the truck. Methods back on for Winter, rigid SAE dogs installed up front and custom painted Ford Badge on the back swapped out.

Thanks for hooking me up with the lights @RMB_Ryan!

Ever consider hooking up that RV trailer and never going back? lol

Lol, I love winter. It’s just a bit of a pain when the temps swing wildly.

I’d rather move snow than cut lawn. It’s probably because I have more lawn than concrete and I have too much of both.

Not a coincidence, but as soon as you northern brothers start to see white, WE finally get a gust of your wind and fall below 90's!

I'm kinda expressing my gratitude without wishing any mysery at your expense. Lol

Ha, it’s fine with me. I grew up in the snow and enjoy a lot of winter activities.

I need to post some pics, but Rear door speakers installed (Kicker CS series) and sound deadening added to front doors and rear.
