VSSB re-cal... yes, have done it. I bought a DIP switch (after I did the recal) with the anticipation of soldering it in for future use but never did. Either way, it's a pretty easy-peasy thing.

Can you tell me where you bought the dip switch?
Radio Shack no longer sells the one shown in the Article written in the Turbo Diesel Vol 1 Page 51
Also I can not fig out how you translate the divide code into ones and zeros.

1998 K2500, ECLB, Auto, 4:10, 265 75 16.
Latest results are 18 MPG combined.
Combined is roughly 60% highway, 40% city. Highway speeds not above 100 Kph, windows up, AC on.
Just switched rims to a set of PY0's from a later 2500HD. Requires far less throttle for same rate of acceleration and lighter touch highway to maintain speed.
Weights:
steel wheels scaled at 34 lbs each
PY0's scaled at 17 lbs each
That's 50% savings at each wheel in rolling mass.
Hoping for a small return on the less rolling mass. Would be overjoyed with even 1 mpg increase.

Wow!
While 68 lbs are a lot go haul down the road, I'd be surprised if you gained 1 mpg.
Keep us updated on how much you gain!
