Saw that picture you posted on ig that's insane for a weight drop just off that little bit of stuff. Was that a kit they sell that's bolt in?

Performance Pros and couple other machining places sell front brake kits that lose about 70-80 lbs on a 8 bolt truck. Non vented rotors and willwood calipers. I just saw other day on FB someone had made the 5 bolt conversion kit too, but for a dodge

The LS stuff is just soooo much more popular, the options seem endless...

104 lbs total drop in brakes, calipers, and spindle swap

Been a couple weeks, due to a random front pump bushing failure, I had to pull the trans again, converter was repairable, and had the trans refreshed, added a promod drum, trans brake and dump valves.

Actually cut off the front foot of frame rail and installed a glass from bumper from GTS, race weight is now 3480 with me in the truck.

When the bushing let go, it made 1283rwhp on 25psi with E98. This 88mm SXE loves the rpm it's unreal. Still makes power untill about 6800rpm.

I've tried that Albert and it doesn't seem to respond well to throwing my body around in the cab. Maybe Brian will have more luck, line it up straight for sure before you let go of the button.

I’m 50 50 Rob, half the time it worked out, the other half we went to the ER

Hondarider are you running a non lockup converter . My brother is building a twin turbo 427 and is planning on running a turbo 400 as well.

 

[hondarider552]

Yes non lockup. Suncoast and Neal chance make lockup pieces but I'd have to sell my soul for one and it's not worth that much haha

 

[hondarider552]

New best 1/4 ET on Saturday and new best 1/8 mile MPH yesterday.
This SXE88mm sure is impressive
