Wittom,

If you had to do it over again, what supercharger would you get? stay with Magna or go with something eles?

 

C'mon, you were just sandbagging! I can see it now, Skid and Crash doing blower installs with **** Chung in the background! LOL!

 

Well the MM&FF guys got just shy of 420 from a Mustang. It took about 18 lbs of boost though! Their car was an auto, maybe a stick could do it with 16-17 lbs!

As for the debate their is always something to be learned. I enjoy seeing both sides of the discussion continue.

At a set boost level my bet is still on the KB. If the boost levels go up, I think the ATI will have an edge. At the boost levels most are willing to run on a stock block they all have great potential.

Just like the L guys the bar will always move up, and shooting for the top will take some deep pockets.

Heck, you guys are comparing notes and wanting more. Let's go to the track and you can line up next to my '95 4x4 Supercab 302. It should put back into perspective the performance level you are at! LOL!

 

Crash,

It's too late to cover, Skid already let the cat out of the bag!

I'm not going to complain, at least we are getting good first hand info when you guys **** Chung with the ATI and Magna!

 

come on guys, you know the best garage tunes are AC/DC Boston, VanHalen, and 38. Special mixed with some Creed, Alice in Chains, SpaceHog and finish it off with a little Stevie Ray Vaughn. Everbody knows that.

 

awwww c'mon guys.... workin to da beat of george thorogoods' Bad To The Bone....... roflmao

 

HI!... C'mon guys, you all know SHANIA TWAIN and CELINE DEONE rule!!!!!!! NOT!!!!!!!!! METALLICA ALL THE WAY BABY!!!!!!! "CALL OF THE KULU" and "ONE" is my garage music. ROCK ON BROTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Now, I begin to see just how................ crazy some of you must be at the race strip!

 

VH1 more of the big 80's

actually my CD player in the garage has Kid Rock, Metalica (garage days revisited), Disturbed, Tool, Static X.

Wow no wonder my brain is melting.

Crash! ease up on the 80's stuff - there was some good music that came out of the 80's (I think, or was that big hair?)

I will scan up my dyno numbers and time slips to our web site as soon as I get a chance. I am going to make some more passes here in a couple of weeks. The air will be warm and normal for texas so some good "real numbers" should come out. Also I have removed my running boards (140+ lbs). This was we can compare my previous runs to runs with reduced weight to really see how much it helps with these already heavy trucks. When we get a good saturday at the track I want to remove all extra weight like most do (boards, spare tire, etc...) and make a pass. Then pile all of the crap in the back and make another pass. This will give a good side by side comparo. Like stated before We do not remove parts to go faster. All of my runs are done full trim (I am to lazy to pull off parts and put them back on just for racing). I do however, for educational purposes, want to show how the runs are compared.

Thanks guys for the support and patience.......

OH and keeping with the insanity:

What color does a Smurf turn when you choke it?

 

OK here is one for ya......way off topic


Notes From an Inexperienced Chili Taster Named FRANK, who was visiting Texas from the East Coast:
"Recently I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off.

The original judge called in sick at the last moment, and Frank happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking directions to the beer wagon when the call came. He was assured by the other two judges and (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy, besides, they told him he could have free beer during the tasting, so he accepted."

Here are the scorecards from the event:

Chili #1: Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili
JUDGE ONE: A little too heavy on tomato. Amusing kick.
JUDGE TWO: Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
FRANK: Holy ****, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

Chili #2: Arthur's Afterburner Chili
JUDGE ONE: Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight Jalapeno tang.
JUDGE TWO: Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.
FRANK: Keep this out of reach of children! I'm not sure what I am supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.

Chili #3: Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili
JUDGE ONE: Excellent firehouse chili! Great kick. Needs more beans.
JUDGE TWO: A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of red peppers.
FRANK: Call the EPA, I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now, get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back; now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting plastered from all the beer.

Chili #4: Bubba's Black Magic
JUDGE ONE: Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
JUDGE TWO: Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.
FRANK: I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it, is it possible to burn-out taste buds? Sally, the bar maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills; that ugly woman is starting to look HOT, just like this nuclear-waste I'm eating. Is chili an aphrodisiac?

Chili #5: Linda's Legal Lip Remover
JUDGE ONE: Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
JUDGE TWO: Chili using shredded beef; could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
FRANK: My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from a pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off? It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. The Hell with those rednecks!

Chili #6: Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety
JUDGE ONE: Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spice and peppers.
JUDGE TWO: The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb.
FRANK: My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I soiled myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that **** Sally, she must be kinkier than I thought. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone!

Chili #7: Susan's Screaming Sensation Chili
JUDGE ONE: A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
JUDGE TWO: Ho Hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. I should note that I am worried about Judge Number 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.
FRANK: You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a damn thing. I've lost the sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava-like doo-doo to match my damn shirt. At least during the autopsy they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. Screw it, I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4 inch hole in my stomach.

Chili #8: Helen's Mount Saint Chili
JUDGE ONE: A perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili, safe for all, not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
JUDGE TWO: This final entry is a good, balanced chili, neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge Number 3 passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor Yank, wonder how he'd have reacted to a really hot chili.
FRANK: --------------(editor's note: Judge #3 was unable to report....

 

I posted this on another site and even though you don't know the characters it fits into this thread. This event happened on my way back from FFW in Atlanta this past Sunday. Enjoy!
Since I got knocked out in the first round of Atlanta FFW and since Rick's wife wasn't feeling very good at home, Rick and I left Atlanta early. Of course we stopped at a Cracker Barrel for an early supper as required! Once back on the road we get a cell call from JR telling us that Dwayne lost in the second round and that they were on their way but shredded a tire on the trailer (with Dwayne's beautiful Lightning inside.) I wonder if the two new 55 gallon drums of racing fuel bought in Atlanta had anything to do with this? Anyway, since Dwayne had to off load his truck to jack the trailer, he continued on to Orlando under his own power. Rick and I are just approaching the Florida border about this time and we compare mile markers with JR and find out that he is only 130 miles behind us. Knowing that he has now lightened his load, we started being concerned that he might blow by us in the night. This call for serious measures. We took the Willie Nelson CD out of my player and Rick took out my only two Metallica CD's. He retuned my stero for bass and treble and a bunch of other things and put the first CD in. The name of the CD? Ride the Lightning! Since I had Rick in the truck, I figured it was OK to play it in a Regular Ole F150. We talked about Doing a club trip to Gainsville and we would make note of the exit number and we talked about Ocala. Next thing we know, we are pulling into Tampa and we don't remember passing either Gainsville or Ocala! I thought Gainsville was still in front of us! Rick thinks He may have played the CD's backwards or something. Very Wierd if you ask me. Sorry about the length of this but I am suffering from a Metallica hang over. Oh Yea, we never changed the CD! It just played over and over
