120-121 all night. Running mid 12's from 2.1-2.3 60's..... :(
Did you have problems with boost spiking to 30 psi?
you know what the problem is.....you need my motor i need yours, ill trade you straight up, i know im getting ripped off but ill do it for a friend :lol:
Wow man, that's sob is hauling the mail, going to be nice when you get it hooking!!!
Going to be running some slicks next weekend?
I'm going back tomorrow. It will be about 50-55* and the track will be good. And I'll have a set of true slicks to run. So it should be better
try not to run a 9 until feb. man :thumb:
dang mitch that thing is moving out! good luck tonight!
Meh, it's alright... I'm not too excited with it right now but well see what happens today...
I'm kinda curious, with a 5500 rpm stall how does it leave the line? Is it smoking the tires? What RPM does it do down the track, 7000 RPM all the way down? If you have slicks and can hook you should easily be in the 1.5s in 60' time, right? Are you able to build boost right off the line? Thinking about maybe running nitrous under 5000 RPM for a quick boost?
Good job breaking into the 120s...
It's not really a 5500 stall... Haha. Thats just casey being... Casey. Haha. It's rated at about 3800 but will stall about as high as I set the two step to
Haha, it's jut a regular street truck... Driving a 5500 stall woul be no fun! Haha
Just leaving the track again... Had a pretty good but it was just one thing after another working the bugs out. Had a few decent runs but still not 100% what I want out of it on low boost. Ran a 10.90 at 127 on about 14psi, so I guess it's doing alright but there's still alot of room for improvement before we up the boost
Fff......... Uuu
That's some great results, congrats!
Just going to get stronger and stronger as the bugs go down and the boost goes up!!!
Keep us updated.
Its a power Vs weight thing.... Its a 5.3 with a cam and prob makes 240hp on the motor :LOL: .. then u add some boost and it wakes up but still nothing like a "Big" motor.. I go by flash speed vs boost and its all about how fast you bring it on.. hit a nitrous stall with 150 shot isnt going to flash like it does on 300.. And had some small issues but we found a way to overcome that .. GREAT day today.. 118-mid 120s on the small tune up.. Few phone calls and a bit of phone time and Good team work !! 5.3 ex cab in the 10s and almost 1.50 on leaf springs with no caltrax or trans brake :)
Too bad you'll be stuck up Mitch's ass next weekend when I'm at test and tune. Expect a phone call or 6 regardless.
Good job guys. I know you've worked hard for this and I know 14 psi is still small boost for you. Plenty of room to improve.
I am going to tune Gavin05 truck his name is Josh you see him on PT.net alot and he will jump in on here... Its a 347 iron block 76mm with some bad ass parts ... There are not going to be many Chevy trucks there so i will try and help who i can... Mitch is on some baby tune now it just needs to upload my Big tune from last year and watch the time clocks :) SGMP is in the middle of no where i been told but hit me up call,text or email LOL u have them all :thanks:
im late to the party, but dont be hatin on the rear mount! my damn STREET truck had to go get the jack and spare that night. also it hauled a big bed full of parts to mitchs house so he could load his RACE truck in the trailer...
after a somewhat successful trip to the track im ready to see this turd dialed in
Congrats on the 10s on extended cab. I know for a fact it wasn't easy.

Thats a good looking catch can...where did he buy?
:lol:
I didnt even see the catch can :lol:
he looks photoshopped :lol: need to make a motivational poster that says "when you see it, you'll shiz bricks.
What's next!?
What did he run? Missed where new times were posted. That's awesome trap
Best time posted was 10.9
trans issues from last week came to a head this weekend. It let go after about 8 more passes this weekend before it let go. But SGMP is a nice track but the surface wasnt great with all the offroad deisels running with us!! Ton of dirt and sand all over the track we could not 60 foot and first gear was nothing but a smoke show high ten were about it 104 at half track and 133 on a million 1.8x 60 foots there was no reason to put it on high boost
