hemi ate my *** up
scsb hemi put me in my place tonight. his mods are headers, 2 cutouts, intake, tune and 17" wheels instead of the 20's. he also has a 100 shot to play with but he said he was out of nitrous. anyways 3 runs and there was no doubt that he had more power across the rpm's 
even when i launched him pretty good he pulled it back and put his rear bumper right about even with mine until we got to that dead spot where they dont leave you, but your not gaining either. it really hurt my pride 
his best run is 13.2@104 on the spray and he said its around 14.5 all motor. it seemed stronger to me. im guessing im around a 14.5 at full weight and i also had a passenger at around 200lbs. dang
ill ask for another run with the added cubes and cam for sure

does anyone think duel cutouts directly after the headers will help me any? i already have a single cutout after the Y. i already have too much bottom end IMO. i figure if i cant get it to hook i can use it somewhere else(mid range)
sounds like the Hemi is a little slow on motor for those mods.....
southern thunder maybe???

what do you think he should be doing on motor? he did run the 14.5ish run during the summer at HRP. heck you might know him...he hangs out at hemitruckclub. he hangs out with the southern section moderator....cant remember his screen name southern thunder maybe???

southern thunder maybe???Yea... I know Southern Thunder.... but I thought he has a quadCab... I have him on video somewhere.... but his avitar ( hard to tell ) seems to show a QC as well...... I was running 14.40s 3 weeks ago at HRP w/ a DA of +2495 feet..... yea weather sux... and my traction was off a little, think I could have gotten it down to 14.2x if could have gotten the thing to hook up... funny, I was the only guy running N/A with traction probs... I usually run 13.90s to 14.0s in 0 DA... I would hope to drop .4 to .5 off of my times with the installation of headers and full exhaust.....
But in the heat ( do you know what the DA was? ) 14.50s is not to slow a time for the Hemi....
