umm bluecajun5.3 would run low 12's with truck intake if he would go back to one, well atleast a 12.3?, txsilverado didn't gain a damn thing, I didn't gain a damn thing, it looks good. Dyno's don't mean **** to me, track Numbers do. Not being an *** ahha

oh yeah amedospike (sp.) had a fast intake head work and ran the same mph as myself with stock intake and mild head work.

Now with the new heads comming we will see what a stock intake can do.

 

understand but if you was to put more gear and a ls6 intake i would put money it would pick up more than expected just thinking out loud,and shift it around 7000 to 7200.
and if you have the compression then it would also help can't put it on a stock compression 5.3 and expect it to help unless you supporting mod for the swap.

 

hell txsilverado has a H/C 5.7, what more do we need here hahha, oh and we both shift at 7k.

 

Well thats fine.........what about me shifting @ 6800 1-2 and then 6600 2-3 with a 3.73:1 gear. 4X4 with an LS6 intake and cutting a 1.70 60', 12.48 e.t. and a 106.xx mph......???? I'm going to throw some gears in it, taller tire and possibly a cal-tracs set-up later down the road. I'll be after that 11.99 index.........

I think I would lose on the big end & e.t. with truck intake. My 60' would be better but the truck intake would choke on the big end and cost me my gained 60' short time.

I don't know Kevin........I hope you get your 11.99 index!!!!!! That would be very impressive!!!!!

You will most definatly need:

1. FAST intake 92mm
2. Very loose converter
3. P/P heads
4. Great tuning and play around with you lock-up
5. 28" slicks with VHT
6. Oh and Great weather

I'm perty sure i would have come close to the 11s that "miracle night" when everyone ran killer times, but oh well. I moved on to a 6.0 hoping to set the bar.

good luck kevin let me know if I can help.

 

what do u mean by this comment?????why mention the valley?

 

good luck with ur build kevin,hope to see u on dec 13 bro

 

I think he was refering to joe's truck. When Joe tried his FAST he gained a lot like 5/10 but it was not just the FAST he also ran it on 30degree weather. However, typical gains are 2/10 on your ET.

 

hey amadeo call me bro, i have what u wanted the other day

 

MPH are not always directly related to the intake. For example i'm running 13.2x @ 103.xx on my '08 5.3 on a tight converter with a 1.86 60' stock intake/heads. On my 05 I would hit a 12.7 at around the same MPH with a loose converter and a 1.6x 60' stock intake/heads. It's all about your 60 foots and finding a sweet spot on your converter.
