Who Uses Their DD 2 Go Fast?!

Mine's my DD. Heads/Cam/Bottle Fed 5.3. Hasn't seen a track yet, or even a decent street run to gauge it against. As far as reliability goes, I dunno, its only got a couple hundred miles on it since the engine swap but nothings come up yet. It'd have A/C if I had a compressor and lines for it. But I'm broke.

i know the feeling lol

Mines DD'ed... CAI, Magnaflow, and tune.. running 15.01's floor it everyday and have not seen any down time with it whatsoever..

Even gettin 13.5mpgs I still choose to dd, I was upset with the fuel milage at first tho lol...

13.5mpgs with
13.0s on the playin field

Maybe I can go to houston at ebd of the month and see how many miles a tank can get me cruise control set...

I daily drove mine for a while a few years ago. Was a 402, t400, big shot. Then as the need to be faster and truck setting between builds it became a toy. Been a toy for a while now. Drive a nnbs daily now with basic bolt ons. Its fun to have a toy that's all hopped up but also nice to get in something an have no worries and warranty.

It's not to bad with the 4.88's!...but yea it does catch some wind top end!lol

This. I'd love to have a backup, my trucks got 2 ticking time bombs between the 5speed and all stock 10 bolt. That's why I've been looking at a NNBS Z71 extended cab for a DD. That and I'd like a 4x4, and some power options for once

since i did the awd swap ive been driving it everywhere, but last year i bought a little suv to dd, before that i DD it for 3 years without a hitch, 5xxrwhp, 11.8 1/4 @ 114, gets 21mpg, h/c/i, longtubes, 3200 stall 200 shot of funny gas, bout an 8 on reliability right now cus of bugs, but used to be a 10.
