FirstGen · 12-14-2004, 06:46 PM

Just couriuos how many of you guys are going to the track with your truck? I see alot more of the cruizer/custom show trucks on here. What's the best 1/8 or 1/4 ET and MPH? 60'?
What is your race weight and CID, tranny?
Lets hear it.

I'm running 7.7X's at 86 mph on the motor and 7.0X at 96 on the juice in the 1/8. With a best 60' of 1.94 (needs gears BAD).

My best 1/8 mile is 7.64@89mph with 150hp shot, best 60ft 1.72

28.5 x 12.5 Mt Sportsman pro's

FirstGen · 12-15-2004, 04:14 AM

Bigjimz - what tire, gears, tranny are you running? I'm hoping to break into the 6's after a gear swap, my mile per hour is there just not the 60'...

bigjimzlll · 12-15-2004, 09:25 AM

the tires are 28x13.5-15 Mickey thompson ET Streets. 4.56 gears and a th350 with 4700 stall. Im putting a th400 with a trans brake in this winter. Im also going to a one piece drive shaft(with a LWB its not easy) I moved the engine back to the 6 cylinder location and im using a th400 long tail tranny and the shaft will still be around 63 inches long.

browndawg71 · 12-15-2004, 01:20 PM

some fast ass hay haulers on here!

FirstGen · 12-15-2004, 01:40 PM

I had a one piece aluminum made a while back when I was still a LWB and it was 66" !!!
Course I grenaded that recently even though it was .125" tubing 3.5"...

Project1970 · 12-15-2004, 02:07 PM

With the old engine/tranny I was running 10's...in the eigth

2.2-2.3 60' times, of course I have an open 3.73 and regular radials. 15.7 quarters at 86MPH, but that was with an engine with a pretty choked up exhaust (behind the headers, that is) and a transmission that wouldn't shift 1-2 higher than 4200RPM.

With the LS1 (which is going in more or less stock, just with a much freer-flowing intake and exhaust than the F-Body it came out of) I hope to hit low 14's and 98+MPH in the quarter.

Purs · 12-15-2004, 02:50 PM

first gen, quick truck! Cool videos at your site. Looks like you've been beatin' on that thing!

FirstGen · 12-15-2004, 04:37 PM

I build it to drive it, and I drive it like I stole it!

gmc67swb · 12-15-2004, 06:58 PM

I'll have times soon. I plan on going to the Creek to race my cousin and a couple of buddies. My cousin has a new HEMI pick up. I'm gonna kick his a$$!!! He doesn't know it yet, but I gotta bottle to go with my 350HO waitn' for him. Oh, and can't forget the drag radials Heh Heh Heh
