I beg to differ....

BTW Onyx, good luck w/ the blower. You've got a heavy truck to deal with, and once you get your fuel situation worked out I'm sure that you'll be happy w/ the setup.

interesting write up.. i saw something similar to that elsewhere.

i also have a TT3000 waiting to go in, so that will drop my 60' times significantly....

sorry onxy, but it's doesn't seem feasible to put 4k in a truck that will only run 14's :think: it was just my opinion. slicks :think: you need to have 1.70 60" to take advantage of a slick, all you need is a set of drag radials and your good. sorry, but i'm not quote( a jackass). i'm just trying to help ya out by not letting people laugh at you at the track when you have slicks and all, and only run low 14's, high 13's. but then again, it's just my opinion,HTH

so what your saying is that putting money into anything isnt worth it?

so everyone on this board are wasting their time.

how much would it cost to hit 9's in any type of vehicle?... 2k? 3k? VERY doubtful... darn me for choosing a big truck. maybe i should tell parish to stop wasting his money and give it up, hes only gonna get laughed at... oh wait he's at 10.8... and he spent well over 5k for his kit.

there is a starting point for everyone, just because i chose a kit that is very easy to maintain, has a great reputation and awesome tech support, must make me some kind of idiot, huh?
