shhhhh :lurk:

Well Grippy, have fun surfing the site on the governments dime....lucky bastage. :D

I'm leaving early tonight to catch up on some sleep. :jest:

I think you are the only guy online more than me!

i can remember sitting watch with a laptop, just surfing away. No harm in that.

I think you are the only guy online more than me!

I dont know I am pretty much here all the time except when I actually go to work then I make reasons to leave work to run "erronds" so I can come back and see if anything happened.

I'm here. on watch. watching, all secure.

bust out the milpersman, that some good reading there. or you can always get the blue jackets manual out. nothing like reliving your boot days.

shoot someone.

how about oh hells no! I do enough Admin during normal working hours.

the MagLite is on lock and shine :judge:

you know what I hate about relieving the watch, greasy fuckin fingers all over the keyboard and mouse, wtf, can you keep yourself clean?

how about oh hells no! I do enough Admin during normal working hours.

try doing 8 years worth of admin crap. i think if i had a different rate i would have stayed in, but i was too damn lazy to go back to school or cross rate.

Guess your coworkers did not read the scout law! :judge:

I've got the midwatch, midnight - 8am, so I'll be on the :lurk:
Whats the next step with the truck?

Whats the next step with the truck?

Not much performance wise. Next trackday is mid Aug, and I want to knock off a 13.99 with the Radix and Magnaflow Cat-Back Only. If I hit it, what an accomplishment that would be to take a Heavy 2500HD with a Radix and Cat-Back into the 13 sec Club!
I'll probably re-install my Clifford alarm system, maybe some stereo stuff I have laying around.

Now, once thats done, I have Headers, Heads, Cam going in, that should give me my 500/500 and start knocking on that 12sec territory :drive:

Hey Grip what kind of stereo stuff do you have left?

What cam? GT2-3?

Hey Grip what kind of stereo stuff do you have left?

All kinds.

I still have that custom-made sub box for a CC, never used, waitin for ya :chug:

naaaa grippy went BIG!

All kinds.

Hmmmm might have to check that out when we hook up for the cal tracs.

What cam? GT2-3?

Comp Cams XER .581/.581 220/224 115LSA

sounds good to me, bring that extra bumper;)

Comp Cams XER .581/.581 220/224 115LSA

Ooh la la

What kind of peak power RPM will that put you at?

What kind of peak power RPM will that put you at?

time will tell where the peak HP will be.

peak rpm should be around 6300-6500rpm :devil:

What are you guarding? navy right? I'm always up this late, thought I was the only one. I'm typing surrounded by cam swap parts, my tr224 is just waiting on a crank pulley bolt, hopefuly get started on that tomo or thur. We sorta have common goals. I want to break into the 13's. But I want to do it with evrything looking stock under the hood, just a cam tune and converter. as soon as the cam is done I start the stereo project. I really wish GM would make a decent stereo. anyway....

I actually like GM's head unit, but thats about it.

man, this is about the time this watch starts getting rough for me :usa:

yeah, Navy but shore duty for now.

what lsa is on your tr224?

lol, Jerry2500 should be waking up soon, maybe he's sleeping in.....

Geez, I wish :judge: I love it when 2 days blend into one really long day :eyes:

I see your still green. One of these days i'll be green. I guess you have to have a Radix. :jest:

That won't be a problem. All i need is a 14.29 :jest:

well, I'm certainly giving you a nice 1.5 month window. My next trackday is mid Aug. So there's your chance :judge: I'm shooting for a 13.99 with no changes for the most part.

After that, you may need to pump that Meth through a 3/8" fuel line to keep up :drive: :jest:

I hope you get the 13.99, Nothing like big truck haulin ass. I think i'll put a 55 gal drum in the back of the truck to help with traction. :jest:

lol! sure, be Mr. Nice Guy :jest:


what are you doing for traction? bigger tires? traction bars? maybe a set of strip wheels/tires?

I need to get a whole set of tires, but i can't find jack for stock 16" rims that also have the "E" rating with any width to them and i don't want to buy a set of 18" 0r 20" rims. Looks like i'll have to get a spare set for the track.

I'm here now all is ok ;)

time will tell where the peak HP will be.

Thats what my "highly accurate" Desktop Dyno 2000 says.

Should be a fun ride!

man, this is about the time this watch starts getting rough for me :usa:

yeah, Navy but shore duty for now.

what lsa is on your tr224?

I like the GM head unit's big buttons. Thats why I've held out out on changing it for so long, but the whole system is sub-par compared to what comes in econo box cars. My TR224 is on a 112 LSA. :cool:

Man i just get on here when i have the chance... which is quiet often :o

Grippy must be sleeping now.

Thats why I love being on a navy base in the desert. Nothing out here to have watches for.

Grippy must be sleeping now.
I can here it now "grippy lullaby" :jest:

ahhhhhhhhhh, much better now!
