Im planning on an aftermrket valve body. Was also looking at a pan by DERALE with the cooling tubes through it. Then go with the dp tuner.
Do you think the dp will fix my pinging problem. what do you think is causing the sound. Thanks for the info.
With that many miles I would pull the injectors and put new O rings in. My truck was making that noise and it ended up being 3 bad injector O rings. The DP tunes made the noise worse than what it sounded like the TW tunes.

The DP tunes will help the shifting. Jody did quite a bit of tuning work on my truck to get the trans to work very nice. Keep in mind of you run a chip/tuner of any kind you need gauges to keep an eye on things. And if you get a John Wood Valve body, Jody and John work very closely together and it makes a nice combo.

Keep Strokin'


PS, there is some good info in the early99 section.
