Let's hear them! I know that we have some badass projects in the works...what's in store for 2005? More 11's? More 10's?

Here's my goals/aspirations to kick things off!

• finish tranny/drivetrain (80-E/TT3200, Eaton/4.10s, HD d/s)
• M&H drag radials
• headers (Dynatechs or QTPs)
• off road Y/true duals w/ X-pipe
• swap to car-style intake (FAST/LS2/LS6)
• 100-150 shot (?)
• 11 second time slips?

 

Finaly get my truck to the track.

TT3000 or PI 2800 stall
Drag Radials
Get rid of my audio system and other weight reductions
100-150 shot

hopefully an 11sec time slip.

It's just so expensive modding 2 trucks now that I have a mortgage payment.

 

Finally get the 6.0L in!! And hopefully, with the spray, some good solid mid to low 12's. After all, I don't want to get crazy with it!

 

finished sig mods and mid to low 12's as well if not better on some slicks

 

Wonder what the bubble for the Top Ten will be? Mid 11's?

 

im definatly going to be in the 10's no matter what it takes. i want to keep the nice truck look too.

 

I plan to get the built '65, and cam springs etc and a wet kit. I'll hopefully get the hang of tuning as well. Im also looking for a T Trim.

 

Need to Tune that Vortech, I might need some help in 05.......


'05 Mods...HMMM
Cam
Headers
Update my Nelson
Maybe a whissle or whine.......

 

Hoping for low 13's with a decent size cam, DUR @ .004" 278*/286*
DUR @ .050" 216*/224*
LIFT .551/.551 or .600/.600
OVERLAP 57*
LSA 113*
RPM RANGE 2200 TO 6200. TB stall, shift kit and tune.

 

Mine: I'm quite sure I'm staying NA. This list is based off of that:

- AFR 205's - 66cc. 10.5 to 10.8:1.
- VHP 1.89 rockers w/Crane duals.
- Cutouts - hopefully adding e-cutouts.
- Air intake - probably K&N.
- Looking into a intake manifold - LS6, maybe a used FAST.
- Injectors. They'll be upgraded.
- LM1 wideband.
- 20" Centerline Stingray III's.

- Tranny mods: Not sure whether to go for a built '65 and sell my stocker while it still works, or mod mine. Downtime is not my friend. Dreaming about a used/stock '80, converting the truck to 2wd, and doing big fat smokey burnouts all day long. Then reality hits me - I live in the snow-belt.

- Converter. Something needs to be done here. I'm unsure about the reliability of my 2600. Looking into a PI triple disk 10.5. I like overkill. I already own the 2600. The PI will HURT to buy.

In the end, I don't want to spend more than $4000 this year, so some mods will have to be off this list. LM1, and wheels are definite.

I don't know what kind of ET's to look for. Old - 14.5 at 92, full street weight and 3/4 tank of gas.
