I dont know where the 480 rumors came from I have always had a 465. I wish I had a 480 to win with my 465 though
videos from this last pull???
As soon as Winston uploaded them I'll post them up.
i only know of 1 guy running a s480 as a single ... not saying nobody else is doing it . its a big charger to light it took a waaaay loose converter ( custom)and a lock up switch to get it too light .
Friday: I think the guy near the camera that said "I'd say he gets about 230....240" was a little off. Just cause the Dodges couldn't get a full pull doesn't mean anything. This was the same sled setup that the 3.0 boys pulled on that night.

Saturday: They pulled the 2.8 guys right after the mod class and left them with the same sled setup - he should have probably held 3rd with how heavy the sled was but a 237 won it anyway.

Here's the Dodge he was up against:

They didnt change the sled for anyone on friday. Everyone from the workstock to the 3.0 guys pulled the same setup. I believe winstons distance on friday was 314.
I think that is what he told me Friday night, had he run in the 3.0 class that would have put him in 3rd. No one else in the 2.8 class got a full pull.
Another pull a few more wins
Went to another pull at Morgan's Corner on Saturday. We had some better competition show up and thought they might give Winston a run for his money. There was a 7.3 with an S475 that runs 11s and another nasty PSD that apparently did well at TS. They said it was the top Ford in the 2.6 class - I felt like saying "that's like winning the special olympics" or "congrats on being the best of the worst" but I bit my tongue.
Anyway on the first pull Winston let out at about 280 and coasted to a full pull:

Both of those PowerStrokes I mentioned made it to the pull off with him and he was the only one to get a full pull in the pull off:

We just got done with Justin's (ChevyDieselLLY) truck last week and he pulled in the stock class. He had 4x4 blocks strapped to the axle for the bump stops, no traction bars or clamps on the springs, it was his first time pulling, and he probably weighed around 7000 lbs in a 8500 lb class. I screwed up the camera and missed his first pull - he went 331 ft and stopped cause he was flagged to. Their were 6 trucks in the pull off and they left the sled as is and did a floating pull off. One dodge went 330' another went 346'; I was a little worried Justin wouldn't beat em but he went 359' and won it:

I tuned this truck and installed a PPE lift pump for him a few weeks ago. My fiance and I rode there with him and then we talked him into pulling. He has an SC IV, lift pump, boost valve, exhaust, and tune on an otherwise stock LB7. He had run at the track the night before and came with the tail gate off and on his 20s with Nitto 420S street tires - just like he ran on the strip. No weight, no traction bars, no clamps, no extended bump stops, and it was his first time pulling - I thought he was gonna be lucky to get 280'. He ended up getting a full pull - check out all that tire spin:

Here he is in the pull off - 313':

I don't think a Power Joke made it past 280 in the stock class, bet they felt dumb getting outpulled by a stripped down Duramax on street tires.:rofl:

No......... he was washing the windshield.......... :spit:
Just kidding, he was purging the nitrous - Morgan's corner allows it in the mod class and the Ford boys brought it so we did too. Salisbury however doesn't allow it so he removes the bottle for those pulls.
4th and 5th place in the mod class were both stock class trucks with my tuning that decided to step up to the mod class.
