So what are my odds? Ive got a 4094, stock LBZ Regulator, and trans. He's got a stock E55..... I thought E55's ran 12.5 but have seen 1/4 times on MB forums people are claiming 12.3's and lower? Obviously if I get the lead out of the line I assume I can win. Any thoughts and opinions

put him on the right side and pull a 4x4 launch. that guarantees you the jump and he'll have to slow up since he wont be able to see shit in the smoke.... :D

if he can drive and launch it he will take you I think.

Just curious why are you putting head studs on? Pistons/rods will let go way before head gaskets on a stock motor IMO. Look what pat put his stock headbolts through.

If you're racing at the track, you have a pretty good chance. A good shifting tcm tune will give you an even better chance. But I'm guessing by the 1/8 he'll be reeling you in like a trophy fish. Although, your truck should run mid 12's so maybe not.

If street racing from a roll, Merc all the way!

Make sure you get good vid and post it here first. ;)

I need to Drag Radials, ill assume he wont be able to cut decent 60's atleast I hope not.:D The race will be at Sears Point fastest track in California so it should be a good race.

street race! youll kill him out of the hole. 2wd cars cant launch well on the steet even with slicks, unless they spray vht and launch right on their burnout (we have never done this lol) rubber hooks much better to rubber than pavment. its is kiind of hard to explain to the cops why you are spraying the road with a lawn sprayer thingy...tech lingo:D
