Default well i did it!!!

well i took her to the track last friday night and got to make a couple of runs. the best of the night was 13.98@95!!! that was in full street trim cuz i didnt have time to do all the weight reduction. 5100#s with me in it and a 1/4 tank of gas. also the weather was 61 degrees. i had to leave in 4hi cuz it wouldnt hook in 2hi. my sixty foot was 2.01. if i could get it to hook in 2wd i could pull a 13.8. not to bad considering 5100#s. i think im gonna wait for a little cooler temps and get some cut outs and do all the weight reduction and i think i can pull a 13.4-13.5. this is leaving in 4hi cuz i know it wont hook when i take all that weight off the rearend! im hoping to make it the fastest n/a 4wd. do ya'll think it can be done? who has the fastest as of now?

yes i do mean 5.3. and cam only. hey bluecajun. do you think that the cut outs will help me since i wont be able to bypass the cats? and my exhaust is pretty free flowing the way it is so i dont know if they will really help that much. i may wind up redoing my exhaust a little so i can fit those cut outs before the cats and the x pipe. its gonna be tight though!
