If warranty crossed borders you would see a lot more Canadian trucks on American lots based on the dollar. Hell, you would see folks from Florida flying to Vancouver to buy and they would still save thousands. It can go 2 ways. But most often the American has the buying power.
I agree with the other guy. It’s not easy to pick the right tree. Hard to find a balance between a complete write off, injuring yourself in the process, or just trampling too small of a tree and giving yourself an awkward facelift on the truck that ain’t even worth paying the deductible on with...
This post is referring to rcsb trucks.
Not referring to 4x4 quad or crew cabs.
Not sure why you are adding irrelevant info.
But find me a whack of 8 speed rcsb trucks in Canada.
If it existed in any number there would be one in my driveway today not down in Saltillo being built. But my needs...
In Canada you can only get the dual exhaust under the “wheel and sound” package. It’s not listed when you build it online, but shows up in the window sticker.
Not sure if 25j can get the dual exhaust with wheel and sound package. Most dealers in Canada order the 25j, so tricky to land the...
I’d like to say I’ll just keep this forever, but if I do, they will build some 7000hp motor eventually and a 20 speed transmission and I’ll eat my words to 500mph
But none of them really are just bolt on trucks running in the 12’s.
They are cammed, or bottle fed, Boosted etc.
Down a hill, in a mineshaft, in cool crisp air lots of things will run 12s.
You suffer from this addiction just as bad as anyone. Lol.
I ran the 727 because it was a numbers drivetrain. I didn’t swap in a 904 because I flipped that particular car for twice the money I had into it. I knew then pissing money into a 340” motor was pointless when I could build 500+” for a...
I call a real cam something well north of 7000. 6600 is street stuff.
9.25” rear axles are weak too. Why that isn’t the first thing everyone ditches is beyond me.
But yea. Trying to sound smart. I’m not the one spending a fortune on a brick to go 12s
I’m not saying your 4x4 is ballast. I’m saying it’s irrelevent ballast even if it is because it’s located too far rear and too low to really drag you down. Sprung weight vs unsprung weight. We know 100lbs of extra rim isn’t always 1/10 in a street car. But it can be more if it’s 100lbs on top...
I would stay with stock driveshaft, go with 3.21, take up standing mile and silver state challenge type stuff, I honestly think those dss shafts breaking trans tails has more to do with incomplete drop kits, backyard installs and no fucking angle finder or anyone who could figure out why the...
I don’t think 4500lbs + is light at all.
That’s huge. You are moving a brick. That’s why there is 8 gears lol. Because they won’t build 500+” hemis for us in everyday trucks that make 650/650 and get a miracle 25mpg and we get on talking about glide swaps because we are driving over our gears...
I think you 4x4 guys have an advantage in ballast with the transfer case, especially if you start stripping stuff off the front. It’s weight in a not so bad spot.
If the rt can’t hang with you with his 3.92 in the 60’ it’s not gear related. It’s weight transfer and traction that you guys got...
And how much were you spraying when you did those 60’. Those rules of gears diminish with power. Like boost or spraying the motor. Would you run na and have the same opiomn if you spun the hemi 7000ish? With a spiky hp curve and the same low end tq? I think you would hunting for 3.92’s or...
I get the diminishing return on the gears. But did your 3.21 do the 1.67 in better da? I know Alberta can be up and down. Did it et better ? Better Mph? And have you tried 3.92 with same setup? Going 3.21 to 3.55 isn’t much. I see why and how etc. I guess I want to see the fastest na hemi 8...
Would the rcsb be quicker yet with 4.30’s? That’s theoretically a sweet spot?
Is the extra weight in the 4 door 4x4 located in a point in the truck where it’s hardly relevant. I don’t know enough about either trucks. But...
Will be lots of pics of car next year when I sell. Sick of the addiction. Not sick of hobby. Just sick of playing mechanical cocaine. I don’t see it any different than a drug addiction.
340 cars both had 727’s. Numbers cars. Sold plymouth in 07. Have had this e body 20 years. Tough to let go...
I think the guy with the gear will always beat the other guy apples to apples. If the incredible hemi went to 3.92 I think he would take back his thoughts on 3.21. Especially with that cam.
Add tq to motor. Gear becomes moot. Until then gear is king.
I’m racing jack stands tonight.
Old dodge. 4 speed bb. It maxes my out cc when I look at it. Used to race a Plymouth too.
Like I said. Addiction. It’s stupid. Tread lightly into machine lol.
And never look at the receipts. NEVER
