update

Finally, got to the short block.


Other than the oil pan leaking profusly the shole thing litterally looked like i just put it together, No wear, or out of the ordinary anything....picture perfect.


i kinda forgot how big those rods are, at first glance i coulda swore they grew. From the pistons too the crank everything looks brand new. Im happy!


With the upgrades we have going in this winter i think we might get a 4.80-4.90 ET 1/8th out of it!

Interested in seeing these next to stock rods or next to aftermarket rods to see a visual size comparison

I'm still waiting for my pm you were sending about all your championships and trucks/motors you have built. Also would like the answer on how you suck oil in your intake because your valve seals moved up??? With boost that's hard to do. If you can show me ANY paper,form,time slip or ANYTHING proving you make anywhere near 1200hp, I'll buy you the tranny of your choice. PS cars don't make the numbers you are saying also. Better question what does my truck make for power with the motor that is in it now?? 12.15 at 108 at 6100 lbs. I ran it with 1/2 tank of fuel and junk inside because I drove it there, normally 6000lbs. If you can't load your turbo's at that weight then you have the wrong turbo's! I'm still waiting on my PM with details so I can put my shirt on that say's your my daddy, Champ! Your best fan Jeff

What? Surely Wade wouldn't exaggerate anything.

I didn't know the 1/8th was the standard

It is only in Wade's world...

I've been thinking the 1200 was crap as well. My little gas 468 runs the same exact times at close to the same weight and it only dynoed a little over 600.

The dyno must be low.

Wade you have a very cool truck and I want to see it perform to it's potential in spite of what I personally think of you being a self serving narcissistic fool. Your claims are yet to be proven, they well might be this coming year on the track and I hope they are as I'll be the first to congratulate you. If you want to be the quickest 1/8 mile racer go for it, I say most racers would rather race 1/4 mile. Can't do that if all there is is 1/8 mile tracks and I understand that. That's all we have here in my home town is 1/8 mile. It's good for practice and basically that's all you've done so far is practice and T & T. Good luck, do us all a favor and take the double wrapped self hugging arms from around yourself and get that great truck running and running well. :thumb:

I agree 100%

Wasn't there a thread about ignoring people not too long ago Josh??


Glad the bottom end looks like you just assembled it!

 

[JoshH]

Yeah, that was on another site though.
