About what HP does it take to break into the 7's in the 1/8th in a 4wd cc/sb?

My best with stock turbo and injectors....just tune, trans, ad...was a 7.89 IIRC. I dynoed at 531hp 995 ft lbs on Danvilles rollers.

That time was a 1.66 60 ft

What's your truck weigh?

Ha! I figured I might be just short!

Weight around 7400 with me in the truck and full street trim and an extra 30gal of diesel in the bed on top of a fuel stock tank. I would do the basics like drop the spare, tailgate, and run the fuel level low and I should be able to get the total weight below 7.

I guess it sounds like I might be able to break 8 if I set up the suspension and tire pressure correctly.

8th mile tracks are easier to get to where I'm at, just figured I would try it out. Ran an 8.54 before the trans and new tune with no suspension prep. Just dropped the trailer and took off!

Why not run the 1/4 at Royal Purple Raceway? Next friday is the Texas Diesel Shootout.

Didn't know that. Is it 2 weeks or this coming weekend?

I still need to drop my truck and finish my trac bars to get the suspension how it needs to be.

It is in two weeks. They have it the first Friday night of every month but they also have street legal drag racing every friday night unless there is an event taking its place.
