nice.....what does the top end of that 6.0 look like.....Cathedral or Rectangle ports? What gears do you run with that 6K converter?

I dig your truck man....looks sick with the bigger hood on it! Do you drive it on the street at all?

 

I ran a best of 11.0 @ 123 MPH in my NA 5.3 setup. I sold the truck and sold all the power train to a friend and he now has it in his 2005 RCSB silverado. I'm tuning his truck and we are shooting for 10's in that screaming 5.3. by the way, the stall in that setup is a 6400.

This is what I'm about to start playin with. Just got it 3 weeks ago and wating on some goodies for it.

 

We went 11.3 at 119 on a buddies. Were waiting for the ported fast and 1 7/8s to get in then hit it with an aggressive tune shooting for 10s so stay tuned

 

Dang...that is a great looking truck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks bud. Plans are to get it in to the 10's. I'm getting a turbo kit built as we speak for it.

 

trick flow 225 heads and 4.10 gears. I drive it on the street 98% of the time. I put around 400 miles on it last weekend pulling down 21MPG (all freeway). I hope to bump it to around 23mpg soon with some restrictor and jet changes. drove from humble to giddings, giddings to Conroe then back home in humble. it's a cruiser. the purpose of my build was to run a mid/high 9 second 1/4 mile EXACTLY how I drive it on the street. I'm happy with the results so far.

with the full size I got tired of pulling seats/tailgates/spares swapping on slicks, removing a filter and installing a short belt....now I can drive to the track, tech in and make my first pass without ever getting out of the truck. I'm lazy like that

 

Times in Sig. This is my 63 C10

 

I've always been a fan of your truck. what size shot did you use for the bottle times?

mine is down to 6.80 N/A with no 2nd gear. transmission is shifting first to third for some reason I think I'm blowing through the converter.

 

52n jet which made exactly 100rwhp on the dyno. I really think it has another .1-.2 on that jet as I was either rolling in to the throttle or spinning. It was also a bit fat and under timed as I was trying to be conservative until I got the traction sorted out.

I would think you would have the same issue in third if you were blowing through the verter. 3rd would put even more load on it than 2nd would.

Example.. All things equal on the hit, when I went from a 3.73 gear to a 4.56, my verter moved from a 4,900 rpm to a 4,500.

 

My best NA is 10.78@121
