Thanks! I'm out of truck money for the time being so it'll be awhile before I make much progress making it faster (needs a trans before I can turn up the power too much). I'm going to see if I can fix up the paint myself, never done body or paint work but I think it's time to learn
A few relatively cheap tools and I should be able to make it look a little better than it is right now.

At Bandimere right now. Got 4 runs in early.
14.999 @ 90.49, 2.153 60'
15.431 @ 90.18, 2.457 60'
14.718 @ 90.81, 1.956 60'
14.720 @ 90.64, 1.967 60'
Times got slightly better after I learned to brake stall a little longer...

Best run of the night came after it cooled down a bit, and I removed the tailgate and spare tire:

R/T .091
60' 1.909
330' 5.881
1/8 9.211
MPH 74.40
1000' 12.092
ET 14.538
MPH 92.31
I'll be interested to see what effect going from 4.10's to 3.42's would have, and also switching to lighter wheels and tires. These 20's are heavy!
