Jokers SS Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Last night a good friend of mine brought his 5.0 over so I could check it out. I gotta say, they did a great job on that car, inside and out. He added a cat back/ cold air and it sounds really nice. He's rode in my truck before and thought that it would be a pretty good run, and actually requested that we go from a stop instead of a roll. (this never happens!) This race was over after 5 feet. I put busses on him by the time we hit 70. His response was "holy ****" LMAO. In his defense, he did let me drive it and it seems a little difficult to launch. It definately would take some getting used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn that's sick.. did you do any motor or tranny work though to make that happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowfive0 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 No motor work other then GT2/3 cam. Previous owner did some trams work (????) and when I got the truck (@70,000 miles IIRC) the trams wasn't right. The truck was detuned and had heavy torque management. I tried to remove some of that and it immediately would slip on the 1/2 shift. Shortly after, bought a used performance trans around 100,000 miles and did ok but I ended up having some issues with it and pulled it for a rebuild. Had a local guy who built the glide in my race do the trans. He did a really. Ice job and it's been in there for 30,000 miles or more at my current 12.20 power level. It has billet input, output shafts, bigger spray, clutches, servos etc. pretty much the works and has been great. Trans will be your issue like everyone else so do it right the first time. Good luck. 170k? Damn that's sick.. did you do any motor or tranny work though to make that happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
