Default 13.31 In A 4.8 Extended Cab!

There is still some hope for all of us with 4.8 's. Saturday @ hallsville I had a new best, 13.31 @ 101.53. I am spraying a 120 dry shot with 25 degrees of timing. The truck is still running extremely rich but I would rather be safe than sorry! I am also a little traction limited, I was running a 245/50r16 eagle rsa to help with effictive gear ratio.

I would like to give a special thanks Brad Emmonds @ B&M racing for making it possible, he new where I wanted to be & has provided tons of help with everything I have done. I have probably called him 300 times or more over the past year. Thanks Brad!

We still have hope!

It seems that the performance gains are greater then the actual numerical power gains in these trucks. I hit a 13.7 on a basically stock 4.8 with just a small dry shot.
