added the 4 nittos and will be adding up to 200hp from my best run before. on my best run i only cut a 1.78 60', i am going to try and knock .2 off of that.
will the motor take it? will the driveline come apart? will it run 9's?
i will need quite a few runs to dial it in so if they are packed i might not have time to dial it in and make my best run.

I know that is alot of IFs and like they say if my aunt had ***** she would be my uncle.
Good Luck and Be Safe! I hope you get it into the 9's.
Good luck and keep us posted.

you may want to look into a detroit locker soon. that gov-lock isn't long for this world with drag radials.
not going to do a burnout???
with the tires being shorter also, if it hooks i'd guess a 9.89@142.

A friend of mine has a '69 Ford F100 Pickup. It weighs 4099 with him in the truck. Has a 429 BigBlock Ford with procharger 25psi and 75hp Nitrous. Best ET to date is 8.90 @ 154. This is on ET Streets and Pump Gas. He does drive the truck on the street (Cruisin the Coast) (Power Tour). This truck hasn't been on a chassis dyno but from calculations they think it's making between 1200 - 1300hp at the tires.
My point is if Parish is putting 1000hp to the tires and sprays a little nitrous mid to low 9's should be possible assuming traction and drivetrain holding up.
Like I said earlier.....Good Luck and Be Safe.

My guess: 10.15 @ 138(No N20). Dont know though, way too many variables to have a decent guess. I will say that I think the parts will hold up. Also, I thought he already had an Eaton locker? Let er rip!!
