nice runs, would think that you would be a little lower w/ those mods. Did you run with your slick too. GOOD way to represent Ford too, I like the Cobra and Mach 1.


off topic..hey wydopnthrtl, what other mods do you have besides the 4lb lower.

why? the only mods that are giving me any real power are the 4lb lower, chip & filter..

I live in louisiana.. land of humidity!
plus my truck weighs over 5000 lbs with me in it.. and about 48xx with the bed cover,tailgate & spare removed.

I think a 12.6 is pretty good.

I'm a new guy, but those times seem pretty slow to me. A lot of other trucks have less mods and are posting faster times.

peace

I think his times are just fine.



You need to go to a track and run. It's not easy to repeat your BEST TIMES over and over - on different days/seasons.

Hell, like all others, I post my best times. I don't list all the other slower times I ran in my sig.

Clonetek was only pointing out what he ran THAT NIGHT. Give him a break.

ND4SPD,

The vid on my web page was with all the following except the ported eaton.

Apten ported eaton
4# lower
REM dyno tuned.
REM intake
oil seperator
Denso IT20s
Spintech catback system
e-fan
FTVB
REM 2500 stall convertor
M/T 26.5" ET streets
JLP traction bars

spare, hitch, & front sway bar removed.

Unfortunatly that day (1st time with convertor) I only got to make that 1 pass at a very sticky track. I genuinely believe I could have busted a high to mid 12.5x that day if it had'nt started to rain.

Best so far (pre-convertor & pre ported) were 12.74 on ETs and 12.89 on F1s.


woulda coulda shoulda.... Rich

Nothing wrong with a 12.8
CONGRATS TEK
ANY DAY at the track is a good day

What are you guys expecting with a 4lb Pulley ??? 10's
OR SOMETHING confused
The man has a nice effecient 12 Sec Truck
without over stessing it Just like I do off juice,
and I still can't hook on the street &*!@#*!#$*#$!@$#

Tek, It's a known fact that the more timing you have,
the less chance you have of blowing a Clutch.
It has to do with the angle of the dangle,
being adjacent to the beat of the meat
