from the factory R/T's have a 1'' drop all around, 17'' wheels, fender flares, and are monochromatic everywhere except the mirrors latches and wiper cowl, other than the badging and that stuff they do look stock. off the show room floor i dont know how much they cost. i bought mine last year (dec. 31 lol) and it cost me 9,500 loaded to the hilt. turbo that would be nice but at the most i could push what? 12 psi? we have a guy making 600rwhp on a stock block pushing 16 psi on a paxton im not that ballsy. if any one wanted to go talk smack to some R/Ters or more likely know what to look out for, here is a good website. http://forums.delphiforums.com/dakotart/start

 

Bottom line hemi's, the SS Silverado will walk on the Hemi. I already prove it to a Daytona last week. We are both stock. I haven't tried a Titan yet, I heard those are pretty quick.

 

A volant CAI w/ ram air tube is stock?

Hey good luck in your rotation if you're still in (or even if you're not). My bro is in the 82nd and just got redeployed to Iraq.

 

No, I put that on, on Sunday, we raced last week. I was in the 82nd, but I'm free now. It's like being in your own Army.

 

yea i will admit most hemi guys do think they have the fastest truck and yes they are slow stock but with some mods they get ok. mine just happened to be a factory freak. but still i know my place and my limits and i'm getting to the edge so thats y i have a honda. i'll race some of you guys in my little itty bitty honda

 

Idonno man, I think the most smack talking I ever heard came from a guy with a really loud 1982 Toyota Starlett.... While there was more trash talk from him and his boys than your local dump, the car ran 8.50's on the 1/4 regularly, with a .40 here and there. He was a great guy really, but was out to prove a point and he did that.

Next up would be a Mustang guy who finally stopped, but not because of a loss at all. He just got tired of being challenged by S/O guys with his street legal Mustang... Which ran an 8.25 at nearly 170 at a national event, on DOT tires, after a 30 mile drive. He earned his trash talking degree the hard way... He paid for it! While he couldn't build the engine to save his own life, he did have connections and cash(I think he sold alotta dope) to get there. I couldn't find a way to respect him, but his car ran like a raped ape. He even had someone else drive it once it was ready for 8's. Blamed his wife for that, but I think he just couldn't maintain focus.

 

Im not so sure about that one... it was just last night that I beat my first ever silverado ss ( it was an 03 AWD with some sort of duals) from a dig to 100 by about 2 lengths. All i have is a s/c tuner and other bolton's . Ive also beaten the only other ecsb VHO i ran into, and it gave me a way better run than the silveradoss did... from a roll of 40 - 90 I only had 1 length!

 

That maybe why you beat the SS, because its a AWD. They are a bit slower than the 06' 2wd. Only because of the weight difference. The AWD adds about 400lbs.

 

I thought the AWD SS's where faster well at least the Magazine I have The AWD has a better Time than the 2wd... Stock to stock... And I have beaten many stock SS's and got beaten by by some too. Stock to stock.. The AWD's Spank me on the launch... But I catch them in second gear... The 2wd.. Is a neck to neck race for me all day long.. I run 14.6's Stock.. 12.9 on a 150 shot.. and just put 200 HP pills.. on a 2 stage..

 

I not trying to start a war here, there many fast trucks out there, but I beg the differ, on a hemi beating a SS. There are two varibles when racing. Bone stock there are very close in comparisons, but, I mean but, if the SS was a rcsb like the hemi's have, then the SS would smoke it. But then, woulda, coulda, shoulda. I don't why GM will not do such a thing, and I think thats why many of you buy the hemi's, unless you are just die hard dodge fans. But if you go to motor trend SS vs Hemi, it will show a comparison, keep in mind the SS does weight 1500lbs more. Check out the last page of it. I don't know how to get a link on here, if someone does, please help with it. http:/www.motortrend.com/roadtests/pickup/112_0310_sport_truck_comparison/
