Good job BIG TEX. Keep up the good work. It makes you want a converter that much more...Huh. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Thanks guys. Oh yeah MIX - need a converter. I am getting worried about the tranny (and the block). Its OK for now, but I dont know how much of a pounding it can take. I guess the good thing is that I rarely spray it, so it should last longer. I know that if I keep pounding it, somethings gotta give.

looks like it is time for me to order a NX kit, i have been trying to get a deal on one for awhile in the parts section but everyone wants way too much money. i was really hoping to get in front of you on that list, at least for a few days.

do you ever goto http://www.prestage.com/carmath/calc...TandWeight.asp
i am punching in some numbers for your truck and it is prety amazing.

at 5500lb and a 15.5ET it comes up with 291rwhp
at 5400lb and a 13.13ET it comes up with 471rwhp

that "125" shot apears to be giving you more like 180rwhp <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> i would think that your fuel pump is about maxed out. i hear the fbodys guys say around 450rhwp is max and i would think we have the same pump as them.

john, the guy he raced was some civic on drag slicks so i don't really think he was planning on losing to him heh. Prob **** a brick when he saw richard purge and then prob **** another out of the whole richard tore the guy by the end <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> guy was good at <img border="0" alt="[boring]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_zzz.gif" /> at the line so even though he had a quicker et than me when i raced him even I still got to the end quicker. That poor poor guy probably didnt get play from his riced out girlfriend that night.

hey parish, when you are using online calculators you should really try to use one that calculates power with the MPH and not the ET. ET is far to dependent on 60ft and a few other things to use it for calculations where the MPH is usually pretty consistant
