53n 29f...

Everything about the truck is built for nitrous. Big ring gaps, cam spec'd specifically for nitrous, really tight converter...it's built to pick up a bunch on nitrous, not to run great on motor...if you're going to dismiss any of mine or my friends work, why not make fun of the fact that I only ran 13.40 with a 6.0...I'm not here to impress anyone, just to have fun

Personally, I was wondering why the NA time was so slow with the mods you had until you mentioned the cam specced for nitrous. I really didn't pay attention to the cam specs.

Yeah, Its about perfect to run the 13.50 index on motor if I can get better on the tree. It does pick up alot of nitrous though. I love it!

Couple of new toys to put on
New Circle D converter



Cheap ebay breather tank, MSD wires, Summit Racing adjustable shocks(rear and front)

Well been a long time since I've updated.

Drove it around like that for a few weeks then decided to put it on the dyno and let Chief do his thing with the nitrous. I had a goal of 500rwhp with this motor and I was prepared to throw whatever amount of nitrous at it that it took to get that.

We made a couple quick pulls on motor in second gear with old, cold nitrous plugs on a stingy dyno(yeah I know. that's alot of excuses) and it only made 342 to the tires. Needless to say I was a little disappointed. The motor was built with nitrous in mind though, with what my cam guy called a "nitrous cam".

We had a .053 nitrous jet in my Nitrous Outlet 78mm plate and it was decided that wasn't going to get me to my goal of 500rwhp...Soooo....In typical Chief fashion, he came up with a tuneup he thought it would take to get my goal. .073 jet it was... Changed plugs, pulled some more timing, heated up the bottle, banged it through the motor and made a pull...


575rwhp 585ft/tq...Plugs looked PERFECT(of course)so we called it good.

Never made it to the track but put it on a couple vettes and some ricers and mini vans and whatever else I pulled up beside lol

Fast forward a month, we decided we wanted to put some more nitrous to it and didn't feel comfortable doing it with the stock intake and plate on the front of it. So I bought a Vic Jr and a 4150 plate and put a fuel cell up front for the nitrous. We dyno'd the truck with the new intake on 2-25-11 and picked up a bit with the intake


Couple days later we built the bracket for the cell up front and I redid my nitrous wiring and on the way home the truck lost oil pressure

Didn't investigate to find out the exact cause but it turned out to be a spun cam bearing. I can't really point fingers, but this was fresh machine work in November, with supposed to bearings. Oh well...I ordered new stuff the next day and started the new build

Made it in GM Hightech this year too



Built a new motor





I need to do some cleaning under the hood but living on a dirt road kind of hinders any of my motivation to get it clean lol

Anyways, machine work on the new motor was done by Jerry's Motor and Machine in El Reno, OK and my buddy Tyler(I think his name is 370 on here) through all this junk together that I had laying around

Gotta thank my buddy Tyler for putting the motor together, my buddy Bryce for helping me pull the old motor and stab the new one in and Chief for putting the nitrous tune up in it.

While it was apart, I ordered a new converter suited for my combo, ordered a roll pan, some bogarts for the rear and some bigger stickies. I've had the parts to lower it for some time, just haven't had time to make it happen. Once its lowered we'll have to redo the traction bars so that's another reason I've kind of been dragging my feet.

Fast forward to this summer

I haven't done anything to the truck in months. It's just been too damn hot.

I ditched the Vic Jr and NOS BigShot plate for a "stock" 78mm truck intake and Nitrous Outlet plate

Excuse the dirtyness. I've neglected under the hood for quite some time. I live on a dirt road so it's hard for me to justify trying to keep it clean




Pic of the fuel cell for the nitrous


Nitrous electrical panel...Progressive, BANG! button, fuel pump, and heater



Also got some new wheels and new slicks. Ordered some Bogarts but they weren't going to be here in time and I wanted to go racing at the El Reno Small Town Weekend deal. So I come up with these. M/T 29.5x10.5s-15 on Cragar wagon wheels that I painted black. They're not very wide wheels but I love that they don't stick out anymore.


A little bit of sad news After 40k miles and 100's, if not thousands of passes the rear end gave out last night on a motor pass. Did my burnout and things didn't sound good at all BUT, I went there to race. Backed up, pulled to the line, just literally rolled out when the arms dropped and as soon as the the guy I was racing started to go around me, I stuck it and BOOM! The ol' auburn pro series said "Not tonight, player" LOL

Couple of new pics courtesy of 660photos.com

I call this photo sequence..."Rear end says 'I bid you adieu'" lol



I made it about 8 feet before the rear end said "I can't take this no mo!"

Pic of the carnage

New stuff goin in. I wanted a spool or mini spool atleast but the rearend guru for these trucks said nobody made one? Oh well. Went with a Detroit tru-trac and some more 4.56s



Still haven't got to put these on but, also got some Smith Racecraft Assassin track bars and some qa1's for the front and rear.


Took it to the track back in June to try and make the first real passes of the year and didn't have any luck at all. The 29.5x10.5 mickeys I got were only supposed to have 15passes on them, but we think those 15 passes got put on about 15 years ago lol. They weren't even close to being sticky even after doing two burnouts before the same pass.


Loaded up next week to head to Sallisaw to race lamborado. The ol' black truck busted that ass lol
