Heating is still there but covered with cool weather.
I double checked the Intake Pressure and all seems good.
I received an LM2 logger yesterday, expect to see some information and pictures tomorrow..

Thanks guys !
King shocks have some issues. I'm trying to find an alternative solution that will give me a greater downtravel while retaining my up travel.
To do this I need to remove the tires, coils, cycle the suspension and take different measurements to insure that I get the maximum down and uptravel.
I also have to deal with issues like:
1- Engine issue is still there, I’m working with a programmer to solve the issue.
2- The tires rub the swaybar when turning left.
3- The Driver side door doesn't lock from outside.
4- The A/C blows air upwards, and the heater is not working.
5- The Hardtop is leaking water from few places.
6- Sometimes when starting the truck, lights radio and other stuff won’t work. I need to turn it off/on few times before it does.
7- The gear shifter is too close to the dash. The gear knob rattles all the time.
8- The rear Savvy LED lights need a 4 wire to 3 wire conversion to work.
9- the steering has a "dead spot" that needs to be addressed.
10- screen wipers doesn't work. No cleaning water either.
But first is first, solving the engine issues will take a priority as it is the only thing preventing this truck from hitting the sand.

naaice ... yes, yes ... get those 0-2" King OEM replacements
btw ... for your LED tail lights ... 4->3 wire conversion is actually just a 3->2 conversion! (reverse/backup stays as is
)
are you using something like this?:
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cht-56146
or are you going for a local fab thinggy
? (maybe those converters are available here as well??)

I'm still investigating the coil and shocks setup. I need to do some serious calculations before going into it.
I will be doing some home fabrication for the LED lights. oh and yes, It is actually 3 to 2 wire conversion.

Sorry for the delay guys,
I was working with a guy called Ryan from Jeepstrokers.com to determine if SCT tuners would work with my Jeep. Unfortunately, it appears that my old bucket is not supported.
Therefore, I have to relay again on the FIC 8.
I will do the following this weekend:
1- Calibrate the Innovative logger.
2- Get the current FIC 8 Configuration.
Then, I will be tuning my FIC 8 Configuration during my trips from and to work. By the end of next week, It will be determined if the engine will stay or go away.

Oh, don't worry, if the stroker didn't work then a 512hp 6.3L v8 would do the job just fine ..

Yes I do, and I would of done it long time ago if not for the regulations and the quality of the local shops. So, No, it is not a v8. RB is going to keep the stroker.
