New Goodies--> Propane and Tranny and B100

Well it has been a while since I talked about the mods to my truck so here it goes.

2 months ago I had my tranny rebuilt with PATC's Ramzilla components, and the tranny is an animal, billet input, all new hardware, alto reds, etc... I will have to say that I will never, ever, ever deal with PATC again. They kept sending the wrong parts over and over again. Held up my truck for 3 weeks.

I installed Propane on my truck, very nice. Running B100 I am getting 400 miles to a tank, and I can peak my boost between 48-50 pounds of boost (yeah i know, its alot, but I will deal with head gaskets when the time comes). I am not sure what my mileage would be with reg diesel, but I had a few gallons in my truck before I switched to bio, and it lasted me a real long time.

As far as the b100, the truck loves it, I actually was running some straight sesame seed oil from a massage parlor a few weeks ago, and the truck loved it. The truck smokes alot less, and is alot quieter. It is a winning situation.

All in all, I love my dodge. Thanks to everyone who has helped me put this beast together.

Were you running the oil straight or mixed with diesel? If you were running it straight I hope you have a fuel heater to get it up to at least 160 deg.I have been running veggi for 40,000 miles now and have not had any problems but my system heats it to above 180 . You need to make sure it is good and hot especially with a direct injection motor. I just had to do head gaskets and had no deposits at all. I also run B100 to start and stop on.

He mixed the sesame oil at about a 20% oil to 80% diesel mix and we are both on straight B100 now.
