be nice! :biggrin5: Guys, are we gonna start a handshaker club?

 

[Cheyenne19]

There was another thread here, but why don't we keep our old numbers? So many are coming over here that I wouldn't want to get someone's number.

do you guys think your trucks do better on mileage than the allisons?

 

[01duramax6spd]

I know they do,I just don't see it cause I don't drive in a way to get good MPG's. They way out-tow a Ally though :biggrin5:

HA. I would have to bet they do return better mileage, that is if you guys knew how to drive a standard!:biggrinjester: but of all the vehicles I have hauled with.. the allison really takes the cake when you want the convience of an auto and the control of a standard! How much reliable power will it hold up(zf6)? I am running around with the 150hp tune without any issue(never limped) but I really don't "beat" the truck, when I do everything is up to operating temp.

I just returned 18 all stop and go city and I return between 22-24mpg highway, speed dependent.:hurray: then again the programmer made a decent difference in my mileage.

as far as max HP for the ZF I dont know anyone who has broke one with too much power. there have been a few broken but I am running about 500 RWHP and I have not broken anything yet, just two stock clutches

 

[01duramax6spd]

Jcool: Don't get me started :lol:. I have never owned an auto and I know well how to drive a manual . I started driving one at 5yrs old. A 67 C20.

On topic ZF's are very tough. I've seen a couple broken ones like ZF Man said but they were just inputs. I know one guy is running over 750/1400 currently and another guy that must be pushing 900+.

Jcool, don't stir the pot with the handshakers, they're loyal to their stuff. Seriously though they do get a lot better mileage.

Speaking of handshakers, has anyone told 4WARNED (from "over there") about this site? Darius is a good guy.

 

[01duramax6spd]
