The way i look at it is what itll cost to build. Diesel trucks alone can be 20k-30k for a newer, clean, low milage truck. Then dump probably 20k in it to get into the 11's..or spend less then 10k for a low mileage, clean silverado and another 10k to get into the 11's

 

i like diesels but im a huge fan of ls based motors. I just recently parted out my mid 8 second drag car that had a solid roller 6.2 made 867hp at the crank. so thats why i decided to build this truck up a little. i really have no use for a diesel

 

im not racing on the strip just on the street where i live theres alot of hard *** kids with diesels that think theyre so fast.

 

We have those up here also. 99% of the time all they did was an exhaust and some tuner that they stuff up in the window.


Then there is that other 1% that surprises the **** out of you.. LOL

 

Its hard to beat the sound of a cammed gasser, sitting at a light with it loping always brings a smile to my face.

 

You need some lower gears, 37's and 4.10's do not compute with me.

 

i had 3.73s i wanted a little more kick off the line so i went to 4.10s i run around 2000 rpms at 75mph on the freeway

 

Really depends on what truck your lining up against and how "built" it is. I took a supercharged denali in my old 6.0 but I had studs, injectors, tune, exhaust and e list goes on and on, not an easy win but a win

A lot of 6.0s 6.6s, 6.4s and some 5.9s are quick, watch out for the 6.4s though those can be rockets with a tune and exhaust alone your in the 12s.
