I don't have any reasons to lie about my set up, on the other hand it makes me feel good when people want to know about my truck. if any body wants to know anything about the truck just ask don't come in here and call it bull **** with out even knowing anything about the set up. I'm more then welcome to do a list of all that's been done to the truck and let me tell you that a lot has been done to it but not to the motor.

I honestly have no interest in buying your truck man....besides I'd rather build one than buy one anyway. Not interested in any "callouts" or "deals" I don't want to tear it down and make bets blah blah blah like has been brought up in other threads before either... Its just pretty hilarious how if someone questions your setup all hell breaks loose... If you are running those times with that setup then good on ya... But there will always be some skeptics. That's all I'm saying.
He is just trying to make a point.
I know Edgar personally and I can tell you that this is one guy that will not lie about his set-up. He is very well respected in the racing community and spares no expense on his set-ups. I hope you understand. If there is any questions just bring them up to him but in a respectfull way, without mocking or condescending remarks.
I hope the mods can keep this thread clean.

Well then if there are reputable people who will vouch for him then I suppose I retract any condesending remarks I might have made... I would personally love to see a 5.3 run those kinds of times. And I'm not saying its impossible, just not quite as easy as you have made it out ... Like I said, if that in fact is your setup, and time then I must say good job. And yes... I would really like to see a COMPLETE mod list.
I know some people are sort of weird about giving out their cam specs so I can understand that, but knowing more about the vehicle like weight, tire, suspension etc etc... Would help everybody...
