Locox,

My son is more exuberant than correct. There has been a sub 13 run made by isa4325. I was at the track the day he did it and saw his timeslip, although I have slept since then and don't remember the specifics.

At this point, I am quite happy being 3rd fastest gen 2 truck that I know about. Tomorrow night may revise the story, going to the track for some testing.

Cool

12.984 / 107.97 RT .501
"Tweeked"

Its all in the "software" Laptop, fuel / air ratios, and Octang.

4:10 to low for my delivery truck, only getting 11 miles per gallon now, and I could not get anyone to reset odometer at the time. 3:73 was a factory gear available thru Ford when I first got my truck back in June. 4:10 gears and the smaller rear tires I am using when at the strip would have been equal to around a 4:33 which was way to low for me to try at that time. When the taller 18" DOT street slicks are available i will try a 4:10.

Question

Does your sig contain all your mods? Or are there some Stealth Mods? 12.x with no NOS seems phenomenal.

isa4325,
Just wondering why you went with 3.73s instead of 4.10s.
