My brothers truck is a 04, and I give it to dodge they have (in my opinion) some of the best interior that I have seen. What kind of headers are you getting? I am getting the dynatech system, a lot of money, but stainless longtubes.
the problem with your brothers truck is thats its a 04 that cant do the tmr mod..... without the tmr mod the trans shifts slow and cuts the power between shifts.....with the tmr mod my trans shifts quick and hard and does not kill power between shifts thats why it drops 4 tenths in the 1/4 mile on my truck...........peace everyone!!!!!!

Question, did they ever offer a RCSB hemi with a stick? There was a young kid 18 or so that had a 03 RCSB and it was a stick. He couldnt shift very well, and I heard him trying to find reverse when he was trying to back out of a parking spot. He had 17's on it, and was braggin that it was the fastest truck around. NO JOKE. I wanted to line up with him, but I saw his truck for sale, so I dont know if he still owns it or not. I think I could have taken him, he couldnt shift for ****.

I've posted this already in another thread but here is my thoughts:

14.2 stock
13.77 with 50 shot
12.65 with 150 shot

And I'm not a "Chevy" person either. Your numbers just don't add up. Nuff said.

I don't bet, but I'll meet you at a track somewhere. You are 500 miles away from me in NC, find us a track that's in the middle and I'll meet you there. We'll run without the bottle and I want to do a thorough inspection of your truck looking for bottles and N20 lines.

Since you say you have some more mods, I'll be looking for your 13.5's. I need at least 2 weeks notice to schedule around my work, and it would need to be a weekend at a 1/4 mile track.

I know you will beat me, but I don't care about that. You have been talking a big talk for a while, and if you back it up, I'll eat my words and post it.
Just let me know. Anyone else down for a road trip?

That would be the best bet, but I don't recall seeing any members in your area. I really don't mean to sound like the jackass I was in my earlier posts. There is a lot of BS in the Dodge forums, and I hate to see that bleed in over here.

Congrats on your times, no matter how you got them. I'll still race ya though!

I have to agree about dtw site, there's lots of bull over there but h777's truck is running those times. The ironic part is, he's a die-hard chevy fan. This is his first dodge. He said chevy wanted 8k more for the same truck. I can't blame him for that. He was just wanting a good deal.

My brothers truck is nice, but its harder to drive since it is so big. I have said this before that you can tell the computer is holding a lot back from the motor. I ran the **** out of his truck for 20 min, every time you would punch it and it would downshift, there would be a long hesitation, then it would start to accelerate then it would shift and slow down. I was like WTF, because dodge marketing is genious, making millions think that they are unbeatable by the commercials I was dissipointed in it. I really like the chevy line we of course have a hudge aftermarket, the only thing I dont like is chevy doesnt know how to put a good set of gears in a truck. That is were I like dodge 3.92, are awesome, compared to my 3.42's, or some have 3.08. I heard that the new 05 silverado with the 310 hp 5.3 has 3.23's ????? Other than that I like the chevy truck line.

And tell your boy Wickedwarlock to get off my back. The whole point I was trying to get accross him was he is coming over justifying his make of truck by using someone elses truck (yours). I know a lot of people that have fast rides ( mostly chevy) like a Supercharged 355 RCLB chevy that puts down 600+ rwhp with a 3500 stall. But I dont go to other sites saying you got to watch out for chevys there faster than you think and then use my buddies truck as a example. Not flaming, but back up your make with what you drive. A better example, Parish truck. When his 10 second video came out the the ford Lightning board lit up saying, BS, probley not a stock block or heads, tons of money spent. None of us on the board went over and said anything, Parish went over and their attitiude totally changed after he told them what he had done to his truck. I didnt go cause their no way my truck could run with a Lightning or a modded one. I really do respect you coming over this site and talking about your truck. And if you think I called you a liar I AM SORRY. Maybe you do have a factory freak, all the best of luck with your truck. Dont you have something to build? J/K
oh you took this way wrong. Go back and look at the posts again. From page one. I was making an informed opinon about not all hemi's are slow. As a matter of fact, I believe I posted there even before the hemi was even brought up. I'm not his boy (figure of speech) , I come here because a own a 97 lt1 formula and soon to be a 98 ls1 camaro. I only posted about the hemi because it came up. There's so many mis-informed facts. I stick up for all the brands, I have owned them and share my facts.

As for the ford folks, forget talking to those folks. They are like talking to the wall, pointless. There's a few that are down to earth but most of them, well....you know what I mean. Paris's truck if fantastic, he's done allot of research and a few broken parts to get where he's at today. There's allot of respect for him. The lightning boys just fear him, haha. That's why they discredit him. Paris has way to much info on his site to be lying about what he has done to his motor. I honestly am not brand loyal, I like anything that goes fast. Sorry that you took it all wrong.

Oh, have your brother talk or call h777, he will help him with some tricks for the truck. It's worth talking to him, you will be amazed what you can learn from him. He's been drag racing for a long time!
