Soooooo..... details on setup, and what did it run?

That is.. a bad ass truck!!

Ive been reconsidering the bed mount for my truck too. I'm only 370" though so your bigger cubes are helping it spool faster than mine will I am sure. Still, gives me hope that I can do it this way if I have to.

Nice truck BTW.

gettin down for sure! Slow the front extension down. If you cant do that, pull a bunch of front travel out.

Id like to hear about the combo as well.

That's awesome. I'm with the others. What did it run?

I believe the truck went 5.26 at 135 to the 1/8th.

Killer !!

I was coming in here to call bs, that's a hell of a truck for sure !! I can't wait to start fabricating a twin setup for my car this winter. If I can keep ac and get 4 digit power from a max effort 408 and twins , regardless of where they're mounted , It'll make my whole year. Guaranteed it's either gonna be remote or mid mount , as I see no way possible too do it up front.

That's wicked... what a launch! For a straight line car I wouldn't have any issue with a rear mount.

What all do you have done for front and rear suspension?

02sleeperz28 Sep 26, 2016 03:03 AM
