LB7: Can I Blow It Up??

[farmtrucklb7]

Jesus rob, if your going to do that pull prostreet. The local rules suck, nobody has a chance to compete anymore lol, I could just keep the twins and pull local too but where's the fun in that! Lol looking forward to competing in prostreet rob

If you blow/burn up the trans-- it will cost a lot more to repair and upgrade. Parts are expensive.

 

[RobsDmax]

It most likely will not give you 600hp. But enough to make keeping a stock turbo and building a trans worth it. You should focus on getting the power to the ground, that seems to be the challenge.

ya alrighty then i will just get rob or mark to tune it big for now! :thumb:

 

[RobsDmax]

I say go for it. Get a good converter, dual fuelers, s475, injectors and see what happens. You never know the rods could come through the block before the trans blows.


I'm still waiting to check my rods through the inspection hole :roflmao:

lol well i am hoping too keep the rods inside the block. the trans i know as always is the weak point so we will see what happens.

 

[RobsDmax]

Ahh truck pulling is foolish... you should have bought my tractor instead lol

says the guy selling the tractor too get farther into his truck :hug:

A sneaky nitrous setup can be made for about $2000 less than a turbo kit lol

 

[RobsDmax]

3rd gear start and let her eat. I wouldn't even touch the injectors or the tranny. Have some fun with it and see what it will do. Just drive like a grandma on the street. BTW I have the complete install kit for it, minus the flange for the down pipe. I doubt the converter will hold, so have a trailer ready.

sounds good! still gotta get those parts off you! is that your way of calling me a girl dave?? :rofl: and ya i may end up getting it trailered all the time anyways!!

hey now i like the sounds of that! that should really blow it up :roflmao:

Your local rules seen like CT... Weight in the cab and up front but not past the bumper and hide your nitrous... Then they get mad when you win with a stock truck. And only selling tractors because I got kicked out of one club for some reason idk didn't go to the meeting lol and can't stand the president in the other, but yes the $$ would go into the truck to get it where I want on the track and drag strip

I had about 40 hooks on my stock trans. Keep it in 3rd gear. That same tune eventually went 12.95 and made 544hp on the dyno.

Nope, Stock turbo i grabed all 3 gears every time. 1,000# of hang weight. Stock gears and 33" STS tires on 16x10 wheels.
