Both passes were all motor, Tried to make a pass on the fogger(100shot) Spun bad, got out and got back in it and run a 6.20 @116 in the 1/8th. Should be good for some 5.70-5.80's in good conditions on a 250 shot

Saw your truck at No Lip this weekend Bellflower....super clean and fast! Well done! I just wish I could do a cage like yours and it be NHRA-legal. Gainesville's a bitch.

Truck

Truck is ladder bar in the rear w the stock frame rails and a mini tub. Ran ok at No Lip, I tried something differnt with the rear shocks and it didnt work all that well. Gonna have a new converter built and hopefully 5.70's-5.80's wont be a problem!!!

New here, have big plans for this little piece of joy, unfortunately a small wallet will mean it takes a while to get right.

They run fine with an LSx motor in them, too. This was originally a 1990 454SS truck that I installed a 325 hp 1999 Camaro LS1/4L60e in. The motor was completely stock with headers & 3" exhaust. It went 14.1 in the 1/4 in it's only pass ever in 95 degree weather. With a shift kit & a tune, it would have run much better. Then the obligatory cam & heads would have gotten it into the 12s. He sold it a month or two ago.
