Haven't test driven them yet. Idle is nice and smooth. 100k on motor with fresh timing chain as of August of 08. All work done by me:)

I drove the truck today and I thought the engine performed well. Smooth idle and accelerating up to 65mph was pretty quick. Fuel mileage for the trip 26.2 MPG based on using 2.747 gallons to drive 71.9 miles, average is 25.3MPG while the best ever was 27.8MPG last year coming back from PA.

The engine doe not feel any less confident with these new wires. As for determining any real gain we will have to see. I am sure the new tonneau is helping these numbers too. Sadly it will be some time before I am able to drive the truck again. Since road salt has not been washed away by spring rains yet I will be re-storing the truck till April. Stay tuned!

I shouldn't have even driven it today...shhh don't tell anyone.
