hey colt, BBB did anything else to his truck? I've noticed he hasn't been on in a while, thought he might be up to something.

4x4 then? If you ran off and left them with a 10.05 1/8th it has to be heavy. Most 2x4 qc's are in the same range you are 9.9-10.3. Either way, good run. Are you a QC? just curious.

hmmm you need to stop by in buford on your way back from orlando.. could be fun... the video camera is always charged and ready to go
May have to stop by Buford on my way through. Get some good video of makin the 22" Hankooks turn to smoke you saw the compilation krc put together. if you want to see the full dyno video (still no #'s :-( ) lemme know and I'll send you the link.

The 418 comes to life tomorrow I feel sorry for the HEMI guys that fail to hear the lope of the engine

Colt I may be back up in AL for spring break part of the time maybe we can meet up and you know make a nice little smoke show

Sounds like a plan 1Slow. So what do you plan to get outta the 418 (track times)? Sounds like it's gonna be a beast. Nothin beats a nice lopey cam. I love the way my truck sounds since the cam went in. The guys doing mine should have the bigger injectors today and the smt6 and 2 bar map by wednesday. Then we should be able to runt he dyno up to 6500 or so. Had to cut out of it on the first dyno, ran out of fuel at like 4200rpms. I guess we maxed out the stock injectors even with the aeromotive efmu - probably hit like 200% duty LOL. Just turn on the faucet and let the fuel flow.

it was probably a 4x4 because if you have a 2wd truck where i live once we get snow your toast just stay home. I went up front of him slowly since i was like 3rd or 4th gear but it downshifted and bye bye, do any of you guys also when you go up or past 3k rpmyou get like thats where your truck makes like a v-tec kind of thing idk its weird i have a lot of power in the 2500rpm past that it just kicks butt.
