i finally get my twins up and running on my truck. it looks ugly as hell under the hood but hey, it took me, a 20 year old kid over 6 months to do it. now im broke and my tranny is toast. now the truck will be sitting till i can rebuild the tranny.

slow down people, 12s are fast enough...(yeah right)

Slow I have a 6.0 and a tr224 cam in the mail because of your truck so don't feel bad. Im gonna go with the trailblazer stall though b/c I am figuring traction is gonna be a problem anyway. Motor should be in in a couple of weeks.

I hear you man. You should have heard the screaming I got when my girl looked over our last 12 months bank statements and added up what I spent on my truck!! Now we are buying a house that is WAY out of our price range and the truck will be sort of on hold until I start my new job. BTW my goal is a 12.9 From the looks of things here the top ten will be in or near 10's!!!
I'll tell you what though, you guys that financed your builds will have some great credit scores!! I wont get into it, but you would think banks would love a guy with no debt, never a late payment and 20K just in checking.
Im still so pissed about that I cant see straight!! That proves that I need to get a CC and get a 408 and DP system!
