Wow thanks FOX SPY great videos. Thats awesome for hosting those for me. Your truck is the ****. I love it, I cant wait to see what that beast is going to do when you work out all the kinks with the nitrous set up, but damn 7.60 on motor is damn good. thanks again. LTNKLR that blower is really not quiet at all you just cant hear it cause all you hear is the blow off basically. You should hear it in person, you hear the blower over the exhaust. It hooked a little better the second pass and for sure hooked on the third pass but couldnt handle it. So I guess we finally found the limitations of the stock rear end with just a posi and a girdle

Thats what I figured. I have heard first hand a F3R on a 347 SSO Mustang on a dyno and that thing was LOUD as HELL!!!!! I guess that my comp speakers just suck. Good luck man with the 9".

Dropped the truck off today for the 9". There will be a few changes made. First of course will be the narrowed 9" and the tubbs. I will be getting a set of 15x12 holeshots on a 29.5x10.5W tire. Second will be a different 4-link set up, a real 4-link set up. And havent decided yet but most likely I will be changing to a air to water I/C. I will also be getting a set of real skinnies for the front. That should eliminate traction problems most likely.

Good idea. Which kit are you going with? You can't beat the adjustability of kits like that of Chris Alton's.

Oooooo, do I smell a back half? If you're tubing it, and putting a narrowed 9", then you'd be a fool not to put in a 4 link similar to the photo. Plus you'll probably run into clearance issues if you tub it and have a 4 link that mounts where the leaf springs mount.

You should re-paint the truck while you're at it too. JK

ha yea the reason for changin the 4-link is due to the fact that it will not work with the tubbs. And its funny that you say repaint it too cause i am already starting to come up with different scemes cause i am almost ready for a new paint job. That is last though after i get all the performance mods finished.
