Finally got a prepped night with slicks in the new RCSB 8 speed and it did great. Got quite a few passes in but the DA was pretty ******, 2500-2750 Da, end up with the best passes being 8.20, 2- 8.21's, and 2- 8.22's.

1.87 60'
8.20 1/8th
84.59 Mph

All times on clean passes corrected to 7.94-7.96 @ 86.9-87.2 mph. That give me a good goal of where I'd like to be come fall on the stock exhaust. Thanks to Jay for the tune and Matt for parts. I appreciate both you guys

The truck is running very strong. Very impressive numbers, and its not even cool yet.

Thanks guys, I'm more than impressed with these things so far. And it is Diablo right now. I will probably stay Diablo for now and see who comes out with trans tuning first and make my move from there. Unless I decide to go HP and sell the 2 t-1000's I have, then I can get a throttle body and pick up one of those ATI pulleys from Matt with zero out of pocket

Uh, what's that???

Edit: And do you monitor your engine temps with the 170 T-stat? Just curious to know what your dash shows your temps at. I just installed a 180 T-stat over the weekend and my temp is staying between 181-185.

It's a modified intake to pull cold air from the grill. And yes, the 180 seems to do the same as the 170, my 170 stays at 185

I traded it in to cut down on money for our 2nd child she was pregnant with. Sadly we lost the baby , but all in all I'm still happy with the truck , the car will be missed tho, that thing was nasty
