Well I finally took the lightning to get some track times before the mods. The truck has 1,050 miles on the odometer.
It was a 2 hour trip to the track with about a 15-20 cool down.
1st Run
13.900@98.67mph
2nd Run (10 minute cool down, staging lanes)
13.768@99.57

Needless to say I was very pleased with the performance of the truck.
More et's will be posted with each mod and dyno results should be taken next week.
I will post the results

By the way, great forum

frogman,
Yes, very impressive times.
What was the temperature?
Is the track at sea level?
I live in Phoenix, Arizona. The track is probably 1,200 above sea level and with
75-80 degree weather I turned a best of 14.098.

The temp was at 72 degrees with high humidty and I was about 300-400 feet above sea level. The bad news was that I have Sal's chip but it is not working at the time, so I did not get to use it (he his working on this). R/T was not good at all but who cares when you are just running the truck for e/ts.
What a blast!!!
Oh, first pass beat a mustang and the second past 00 Camaro SS (red light)but a quicker e/t on paper.
Still good in my book.

 

gald you beat a SS (to the end)
