I knew those weren't your numbers, I was just stating "nice numbers" in general. I see you're checking out the competition as well.

you're welcome. dig around here on Yank's site and see what can happen with the right converter. all the one's done at VHP were done in third gear at 0 mph start. http://www.converter.cc/dyno_shop.htm

Yes... I did... It was too much cam for what I was looking for.

If you're heavily into the drag strip - I think it's great. I'm heavily street/tow/daily-driver oriented.

Hey Slowprocess, I looked at the DTW site and my thread is gone! Those people are funny, instead of just saying good numbers, they bitch and complain that isnt Hemi orintated just because they are jealous they cant make those numbers without shooting NOS.

I noticed it was gone too. They posted "welcome" in my first thread, then turned around in other threads and pissed and moaned about the GM, anything but HEMI threads. Hey, it doesn't bother me one bit they don't want to know anything about the competition. When they hear the lope at the line, it will just be too late. I see those guys really do like the spray! Oh, well.... I won't lose sleep over it.

Sorry its taken me so long to get back here. First off Let me give a Huge thanks to Jason, Engine John, Goeff and my boy Jordy for making this all happen. Thses guys and the whole staff at Thunder Racing are excellent people and I highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking for greeat service, great people, great parts, and an all around Awesome experience. These guys made this this process a dream. Truck feels incredible. I cant believe how much difference between the 2 cams. I have no complaints at all. Valve train is quiet, Idle is great, drives like a dream and the power is better everywhere. I was hoping for 320hp but got more than i hoped for. Im trying to get to the track Wednesday, weather permitting and get some numbers. Ill keep you guys updated.
