What's This Hemi Run?
Well, I have a couple of somewhat planned races coming up with a 1st Gen. Lightning and a RCSB 2wd Hemi with factory 20's. I'm not too worried about the Lightning but I kinda am about the Hemi. I know it has a CAI, throttle body spacer, headers(not sure what kind), a FlowMaster complete exhaust, and possibly a Superchips handheld(not positive on this, but let's count it in anyway). So what do you guys think this thing runs? I know this may sound kinda stupid but I live in a small town and when you lose you hear about it for forever, and I really don't wanna lose.

I'm guessing 14.5 or lower, maybe high 13's. Stock he may have run 14.9-15.1, the CAI is worth maybe .1-.2, the TB spacer is worth ZERO, the headers if they're LT's are worth .3-.4 from what I've heard, the exhaust is worth .1-.2 and the SC is worth .3-.5....
My QC Hemi Ram ran a 14.98 with just the SC, stock intake and exhaust at the time.

And there is also the possiblilty that all his mods did not add up to A lot of those CAI's breathe HOT air..... no good, I have seen people with aftermarket exhaust post losses, some of those shorty headers just look good... if he did not make good choices he may actually run slower..
Otherwise I would say Ram4Pick is quite close... Those 20's are NOT going to help him but then I ran 14.30's on 20s and NO programmer....

Hmm, it sounds like it may be pretty interesting. I know for sure that everything on the truck was already there when he bought it. As of now I'll be running a mail-order tune, Hooker Aerochamber exhaust, and an intake(probably an AFE). I have 20's they will hopefully be replaced with some DR's for the races. You guys think I'll be safe or no?
The races will be on the street from point A to point B(it is a tad bit over a 1/4 mile). I do know that one of my friends overheard him say he only runs 90 MPH from start to finish but that he gets there fast. I know for a fact that I run 93-95(98 once) MPH from start to finish with just 20's, a HPP3, and custom stock intake. I know this doesn't mean anything but it could be a little something to go by.
Tractionless, I'm working on getting the races on film, all 3 trucks will run eachother. I have seen the Lightning run and it is sweet, so it will be a good video if I can get it done! Thanks for all of the help so far everyone!

Haha Rhino, I don't think so, you guys would kill us! We do have a built 64 1/2 289 Stang that might give ya'll a good race. I actually think the hauler would take it though, that truck scoots!

Well see in my sig for my mods/times, I'd say a 14.1 to a 14.5, if he's dropping the tailgate, spare, if not and he has a hard tonneau cover he could be up to .5 slower.
Good luck kick some butt.
