  1. Nu-Finish is good stuff, but it does mar the clearcoat and leaves spider webbing. After applying Nu-Finish it is highly suggested to follow with scratch/haze remover to eliminte the maring. Also Nu-Finish will attract dust more than most in my opinion
  2. Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I heard there was some sort of ruckus regarding my truck and I just got around to reading this. I agree with most it is excessivly high priced but it only takes one. Still boggles my mind that the guy that bought it from me chopped off the Corsa muffler and installed some pile of a Magnaflow muffler. Then sold the Corsa Sport muffler for $30 to boot! O well
  3. Looks good Is there a reason or a difference between those and CalTracs?
  4. Forward sprag is broke in the input drum Easy fix but the trans will have to come out and apart
  5. You wont regret spending the extra money to get it polished. Thats gonna be killer And I never had a methenol tank. I ran nitrous
  6. Depending on skill level, 2-3 hours. Some may want to take longer just to take your time. Doesnt hurt to double or triple check everything
  7. Your my favorite turd, I wouldnt shitcha The theory sounds good, but that ship had sailed many many moons ago If I remember correctly, it actually hurts performance slightly when it gets hot out because of my previous statements
  8. ........dont worry about your reaction time. It doesnt mean anything on that time slip. And im tellin ya that tube doesnt mean a thing for performance
  9. Gonnna call it..... "I want one, I want one!"...........*crickets chirping* when it comes to payment
  10. edited.......not sure what I was thinking there
  11. Just take the passenger side headlight out before you run
  12. That "ram air" tube isnt gonna make that much of a difference. It might in a cooler day like what you had, but really its next to nill. Think about it. That intake on the air tube is closer to the ground. Heat rises. On a hot day you are taking the hottest temps from the track and right in the tube. The logic is great, but I dont believe in it. Tailgate, sure. You can take it off. But are you gonna tell ol boy on the west side of 435 "hey hold off, let me take my tailgate off before we race" Run it as it is. Im not saying fill the gas tank full, or have 2 15 inch subs in the back with dual amps with car seats. But just run it. For what you are trying to do you need to run it like you would on the street. Once you get your truck up to what you feel comforatable, then start to take off these small things to mabye cut a time a little quicker for time slip purposes.
  13. Good times Listening to your launch......I really think you wont be disapointed in that converter after the blower. Someone might call my BS.....but I would put a bill on decent 60fts and times after that listening to the take off. I say this because it seems like it bogs down quite bit when you launch. That positive displacement blower will flash that converter a lot hotter. Much hotter actually. Glad you had fun. Also remember...when you are at the track trying to get a baseline it doenst matter who you are racing. Dont worry about that tree. You could sit at the starting line for 4 hours then take off and your time will be the same. Reaction times are only for bracket racing. Work on your 60ft times and different ways to launch to see what works best for your setup. That isnt what test and tune is really for. Its not about "racing" whoever is in the next lane, its about seeing what works and what doesnt for your ride. You see guys get butt hurt on dyno numbers and track times all the time. Modding isnt bolting on and go. Thats why they call it "test and tune". Get a baseline and go from there.
  14. Congrats. Good to see you are having fun with it
  15. ..........im sure you just listed your trans and stall speed just for the hell of it...but these dont make a difference on a dyno Just tossing that out there......
  16. The cool weather will help I will say low 15's high high 14's at best......your 60ft will hurt you I think
  17. Think about this comment a little more....you might of just answered your own question Bingo
