Default CalSpeed Fastest LS Based Truck in the Country?

I was just curious... Whats the fastest truck in the country right now with a LSx based engine????


In case noones seen it, this is a CalSpeed & Performance customers 72 Chevy pickup with a LSx 427" /w F1 procharger (only 12.5 psi peak logged on 8.90 pass).

So far has been 8.90 @ 151, 1.29 60ft on pump gas 91 octane /w methanol. Truck is driven on the street regularly. Usually runs low 9's on a regular basis.

If Flaco could hit those 60' times he'd be in the 7s

I'm pretty sure later on in that thread he said he went 8.7@160. It may be even faster than that too.
