I wanted to prove a point also.

That on 8 speeds the expensive mods such as a Vararam, LT headers, 3.92's etc were not needed. Who knows maybe someone well sell me those mods and then I'll run 7 tenths faster!!! Yeah sure...

Also that true duals work fine if designed correctly, single is not better.

I don't just make claims, I prove them.

How do you know that you would not have run faster with 3.92's, longtubes, a better intake, and an open single exhaust? You put up a great time, but that proves nothing about how the truck would have run with those other parts.

Not putting down your setup, but I'm curious where you are getting your facts from?

he is saying that those mods arent as much bang for buck on 8 spds. Sure the mods will help but they arent needed to achieve the same results as 6 spds.

Jay, no point in hearing my take on why the other parts are better because your mind has been made up. I guess we will just have to see how Henry's truck runs in a few weeks with the longtubes installed. Let the timeslips do the talking.

Congrats on getting 12's.

Yep

You can achieve the same performance using a cheaper setup. Mod smart.

Bro, it's not always about being getting the cheapest, or best bang for the buck. If that was the case than my truck/mods are a total fail... lol!



Edit: Congrats on the times, imagine what you could do with a good tune, lmao! :favorites13:

Good job, Jm.

Is that the first 8 speed in the 12s?

I wonder what you'd do with a set of really wide soft back tires.

Wow, great job, nice to know you don't have to install a cam or converter to get those times, I just can't see my engine and tranny being broke down.
