actually been in the .20's but the damm converter was not locking....crossing the traps at 7700 kills the powerband on it and lost a bunch of MPH...but the converter is at circle D getting some therapy
7700!!! wow thats crazy... does that thing ever see motor passes?

We need to trade lives for a day. You can come work on my junker and I'll go race one of your single digit trucks.

not really, customer got used to running it with nitrous all the time, and doesnt want to run it n/a...converter brings the rpm down 1000 rpms when locked ...

this time around locking it we should be able to break a 9 in it...its got the power

wow Flaco thats awesome. I admire you and stock4.8 both of you are constantly finding better ways of making power and getting it to the ground. I only hope to get my S10 or get a RCSB in the 10s and maybe 9s one day. Id probably come to you for advice and pointers lol.

I will more than likely join a friend and pay you a visit in Houston once the new set-up is running so you can get me a 9 sec pass. I have a thing about running a tenth above my goal that your skills and weight might solve.

Thank's man, no worries were in two different classes, 2wd vs 4x4. All 4x4 is good for is street racing, and I don't do much of that lol. I've got my eye on that turbo for my new project. I'll be waiting to see how much it's worth over the PT88.
