Willi, I'll be sand baggin or the worst driver ever if my car is only in the 11's. Better put me in the 10's. Bitch is fast. If it doesn't get there, it's the drivers' (me) fault.

Dude, you were going to PM me when you picked up your beast! There's a great Mexican highway right near where your car is housed to have a little fun run

Have not forgotten my friend.

Car had some delays due to the 9" custom rear. New tentative date to be ready is begginning of April.

Also, non of our cars are guaranteed to run reliably either so your in good company.
My goal is 10s but I dont plan on running that for a bit. Have to learn the car more and dial it in. Which is why I opted for 11s so far.

hey 89gmc, how do you like the ez efi? when i get around to my 93 s-10 build, i am kinda lost at what to do for the electronics. just wondering if the ez-efi or the holley efi system would be better than me messing with some stock harnesses and whatnots.

It looks cool in the box. The truck is still in a snowbank so I havent touched it yet. If it works it will work well. Thats what im hearin anyways. I should have it in and running this week hopefully since I have a roll cage install this weekend. If not a trailer works just as good I guess...

Haha ok, I might work on wiring today and possibly have it running by the weekend. I decided screw it and tore apart my 8.8 rear end and ordered gears, axles, and a c-clip eliminator/rebuild kit for it lastnight rather than working on the efi
