I'm gonna go out on the 26th and see what it'll pull like it is with everything stock except the weight reduction and the hole in the intake box. With 96k on the truck I don't expect much. LOL

Seriously though. I want to make this one clean. I'm gonna polish all the tubing and stuff in the engine compartment so I can take it to show & shines as well as the track. It'll never be a show truck but neither are a lot of the cars at the Good Guys shows we have up here in norcal. people overlook small flaws when they find out your pushing almost 800HP. Hahaha

I think I'm just gonna keep the name simple and just use F8L like I do on my home board. LOL
I've been F8LPONY, F8LT/A, F8L Z71, F8L... And to think I picked this name way back in 95' when I put my first supercharger on my old Mustang GT.
Hell, almost everyone in my car club just calls me F8L even after knowing them for 5yrs.

Hahaha my bad bro. I didn't mean to open a can of Haterade on the high milage gals.
I just don't have any mods on this poor thing. Even so she feels pretty quick. Amazing what a 1000lb diet can do for the feel of a truck. LOL

It's pretty rediculus I know. I just ran outside to check the RPO codes because I wasn't sure of the gearing. It was running pretty high rpms at 80mph (about 2300rpm) so I assumed it had 3:73s and sure enough I had the GT4 code but to my dissapointment no G80.
Ahh well, I guess an Eaton would be better anyway no?
