good luck. let us know how that goes.

by the way, when you get done over there you should go find a dodge meet. we all know they are PERFORMANCE MACHINES and quarter mile monsters too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Default GOING TO A FORD RACE WITH MY CHEVY

Going to the ford shootout at Rockingham Dragway this weekend. I'm going to run my 02 chevy sb 2wd truck. Just added a 2stage NX kit whent up to a 4.10 from 3.73 also got some ET STREETS 30X12.5X15
I have ran some 8.50 on one stage and my street tires in the 1/8. Running the 1/4 going to spray 50 shot out the hole and 100 at 3,000 rpm maybe if i don't brake anything i will run in the high 12's........CHEVY V/S FORD EVERYONE WISH ME LUCK

Good luck! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> 12's shouldn't be a problem if you went 8.50's on street tires and one stage. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I'd like to ask a couple question if you don't mind.

What rims are you running those ET Streets on? Did you have to clearance the brake calipers for the rims to fit?

Lastly, I'm going to move this over to the chat section. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Thanks

John

ET streets and 4.10s should net you some nice gains, not to mention the extra nitrous shot on top.

Did you run a 100 shot on your 1/8th mile runs? Spray out of the hole?

12s dont seem to be that far away with your mods.

Good luck.

I'm running the WELD SUPER SINGLE 4/58 back space and i had to do alot of grinding to get them to fit. When i ran the 8.50's i didn't spray until about 30feet out with a 100. When i get back i'm going with a 3000 YANK and some ASM headers.

I went to the track and the best time i could get was a 13.3 at 104 best 60 time was a 1.99. I need a TQ bad i didn't want to spray it to hard out the hole so i sprayed 75 and at 3,000 another 75 come in.Next mod will be a TQ not to bad for 4.10's, Taylor wires, air box, Flowmaster, Servo,ET Streets, and NX 2 stage kit

I assume you have the 5.3? I'm trying to figure out the greatest potential times for my little 4.8. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
