    Fuel sync

    I put a comp cams energy cam in my truck with the 5.9 magnum. I keep reading somewhere that i need to do a fuel sync. It seem to run fine. I went to a few local shops and they have never heard of such a thing. Is it only a dodge dealer that knows anything. I haven't gone there yet.

    I have looked at it closer and I guess I really don't need to do the inner skins I can just cut out the very bottom of the panel and tack in a new piece of sheet metal for a lot cheaper then what i have found the inner skins for.
