I drove my truck over 20K miles between April to October last year. Mine will be an everyday driver if I can afford the gas this year.

Its gonna be one hell of a beast.

everytime i started to post in this section something always came up and i would forget about it.

my truck will be for the strip only with an occasional cruisin' or meet. i think it will be more streetable since the boost wont come in like a kb or eaton.

i've got a few more goodies for the truck.

a kirkey prodrag seat(14lbs.)

and a cervini's lift off cowl hood (about 15-18 lbs.)

96 lb. low impedence injectors w/ a pro-m driver box

new style blue CPR RACING fuel rails

a PSP line lock kit.

more stuff added as we continue on.

how long has your's been in? Who does your tuning? Any e.t.s? And most importantly, how is it as a daily driver?

i do have a 16 gallon fuel cell.

ya think thats enough for a single pass or should i go larger.

i was going to go with 83's but they were outta stock and since the were part of a sponsorship deal i aint complaining. i've already discussed it with my tuner and it wont be an issue as far as tuning goes.

we'll probably have to remove the intake and discharge tubes but changing plugs shouldn't be to bad.
