Default Got a 12 sec time slip :)

It's official, I have a 12 second truck

Ran a 12.74 @ 106.5 with a 1.879 60' at Speedworld last night. I'm stoked!

This is on 8 psi in the 408, with stock geared 4L80E, 3.73's and 285/75-16 tires and a 3000 stall converter.

Thanks guys.

Brett didn't get a good run in - I guess he was still running crazy rich after taking 15% fuel out. Guess the new fuel pump is really good or the old one sucked ***!

Thanks guys! More to come....I'm planning on upping the boost to 14-15 psi eventually Long-term goal is to have a 10 second truck. We'll see if I get there.

That's 1.7+ seconds to make up now on an already boosted truck...It is possible, it will just take a lot of work to get there...

Anyway, i love the sound of that truck...I loved when we raced getting on the 101 that one time, and he went around the corner on 3 1/2 wheels...

Caption says it's my 12.74 run but it's actually a 12.77 run.....huge difference I know....

I can make up 1.7 seconds with another 7 or 8 psi and some spray

I like this thinking of putting a bottle on the truck.

If you get the exhaust put back on it I can do some tweaking and put it back into closed loop for you. Should make it a little better.

Speaking of putting exhaust back on did you find out why yours blew off, to much backpressure? that is still very fast for a big truck congrats .

Thanks Mike! I'm not sure if it was too much backpressure or maybe the pipe wasn't seated into the muffler all the way....I just replaced that pipe a couple months ago, so that could have been part of the problem.
