word it how you will, they all run the same. it has nothing to do with cash by any means and definitely not the talent...

As for engine, it's just a forged piston 6.2L.

No excuses here mf's!!! run what you brung!!!!!

If a 440ci twin turbo extcab beats a stock 5.3L, end of story, period, it beat it! sure you can bench race and talk how one is on a budget, low cost, etc etc, but the fact is, if you're faster, you WIN!
thats pretty much exactly what im saying. thanks for the backup!

Silver sleeper has a 4 link?... He has the fastest EC in my eyes right now...

Bottom line... Don't make excuses... that's what "parenthesis" are for... excuses to fall back on. Last I checked there was no awards for "stock suspension" handed out at any events? Not even a cookie handed out... I'm so sick and tired of hearing about "stock suspension"... nobody cares if you have a "stock suspension". Besides, my DD has "stock suspension" like it came from the factory... that's "stock suspension"... not lowered with stiffer front springs or softer de-leafed leaf springs with caltracs or long bars on the back and coilovers and pinion shims to correct pinion and on and on... GTFO with that ricer chit

Boost>nitrous all day everyday... have a great day!!

thats about the dumbest fucking post i have ever read in my "life"
