THis kid has 6k in his truck. How many X's that do you think Parish has?
Parish blah, blah, blah, Also, if not already, its wont be his truck anymore since he is selling.

Not enough good vid of its performance, IMO. Get it on the street where you can show how it can scoot! Too bad he'll never be abe to run it at the track.

Thats all we have of it. Customer has it back. Dont know if he will ever take it to the track. The only time we were able to do a little "comparison" against another car was just an LT1 F-body. To say he put bus lengths on it is an understatement.
We are working on a 408 Silverado SS video as well as a truck we did a swap in; '92 rcss GMC with an '05 cammed 5.3, stall, etc..

No, it wont run 10's, but we are only going to run 8 or 10psi, not 20. Even now, the truck will run in the 7's in the 1/8th and its running 6psi and we tuned it very conservative. This is a 5600lb truck too.

cool.

now put your motor in a 5600lb truck so we can watch it run 10's in the 8th.

i think a 7sec 1/8 is pretty good for a 5600lb truck only pushing 6#

care to run me??????

I call B.S. on your GTP running 8.1's....... what is done to it. 12.7 1/4 mile in a GTP ...... Takes around 3300lbs and 310FWHP/350FWTQ..... that truck weighs 5700lbs and can likely run a 8.1........

Troll........
that truck is a beast.... anyone who can spin the tire on a 5400lb truck like that is making some power.

That music pumps me up!!!!!
