Default Ran truck for the first time

Ran the truck for the first time today. Was hoping for a 14.8, expecting a 15.1. So you can see I was very happy.

14.612 @ 92.96 2.154 60'

Congratulations on the times! You slip looks very similar to mine on motor. Then again we have very similar mods but my truck is a few years older.

Thanks BigKid! Accually when I first went to your website, about a year ago, I knew I had to lower my truck. It was nice to see what it would look like be for I spend the money. I also used your pictures that you had for your trans cooler. Did the same thing this weekend. Looking to get a bed cover then I am going to get a nitrous kit.

Thanks BigKid!
No Problem buddy. That is what we are all here for. Actually your picks have helped me out too. I want a hood/frontend setup like yours except I will be using a tahoe grill shell.

Thats funny I thought of doing that too. I'm not sure what the brushed and crome will look like together though? Might have to get a crome speed grill, but then again that might be to much crome. This is why I have not done it yet.

I will have new, cleaner pics tomorrow. Got a new camera, no more scanner!
