tune many 7.3

[hayjayhorses]

I have been reading this forum for a few months and running ford 7.3 since 1998 and my father has ben through all the Big 3(over 100 trucks) since the 70's hauling horses and hay is tough on pickups.

I am now ready buy a Mintaur package, some tunes and a few blank chips. Between myslef and my family we have 7-10 (some are apart) ford 7.3 psd. some standard shift and some autos. We also have Dodges and GM's In the past 12 years I have done all kinds of mods chips, programers, ect. You guys know.

My family is in the horse business, my father and us 4 boys. We each put 60K plus miles a year on each truck.

I would like to get some pricing on blank chips. Also if I was to buy "6 tunes" can I burn all 6 tunes to several chips? I want to be able to program several trucks with out going broke.

I already have 2 TS 6 position chips.

I have a friend who sells propane and he has 2 "07 F550 with 6.8 that run on propane, any tunes for them? I am thinking more timeing since propane has a much higher octane then gasoline.

you can call any time later in the day till late at night I am generaly on the road till 1 am most nights.

thanks

If the trucks are all in the same "pcm family" then the programs are interchangeable, if not then expect to spend $250 on each additional definition package.

As it sits, it looks like 4 definitions will be needed. I'll give you a call and we can put a package price together for you and save you some money versus trying to buy everything individually.

Take care.
