Rob,

I haven't looked at their site again to refresh my memory yet, but from
what I remember from about a year ago, most of their systems seemed to be
designed for turbos. That could explain the high prices given. The
systems did look pretty good though. Maybe the tech department they
mentioned will give you some more specifics about an application suitable
for a GMC. Please keep us posted on any new developments!

Thanks,
Zak

Just for information purposes! Check the inside of the head where the
spark plug seats, and the intake valve seats. On mine (water injected)
there were small cracks. The heads were "J" heads so I was not
concerned to toss them. But no more water either. I think Jim
Clendenny original owner did a good job but the water did damage the
heads. Hair line cracks. Nothing serious but not good enough for me to
re install on my 455, that is the only thing I could account for the
little cracks. Like to know of any others with this phenomena. Chuck

A more likely source is pre detonation. many times you cannot even hear it.
Joe Mondello told me that is the first thing we all should install on our
engines with todays bad gas. He sells one that detects knock and
automatically retards and advances the timing to compenste. MSD sells one also.
