Yeah looks bad ass man, love those Slides! I have the same level 2 P.built trans, shifts pro and has held up well behind my blown 6.0. Just keep in mind you will need to use your stock bell housing. The bolts were a PITA to remove so have an "easy out" ready and be ready to possibly need new bolts. Best of luck....Oh and make sure your tuner sets your line pressure back to stock :)

Here is a 0-60 run for some idea..Should meet in person since you are so damn close and you can hear it much better. 0-60 Is much better now that I installed new stall.

Roads are quite mean to me...Being lowered doesn't help at all. Front end has been bottoming out onto the 22's alot recently...

looking good david to bad you aint local would love to run them :)

Would love to run them, start driving.

Ran the 1/4 today, previously ran 15.656 @ 88.92 as a best with bolt-ons on the 22's in 60* weather.

Today in the 95* heat I switched back to the stock 16's and ran a best of 15.244 @88.54 in 2wd with some wheel spin, and then dropped it to a 14.940 @ 89.86 in
4hi.

The 2wd runs were at my expectations to begin with, didn't think I would gain so much in 4wd, let alone actually crack the 14's. Super satisfied and now just dying to get this procharger in ASAP!

Yea I was impressed with it. Had alot of people asking about it that night. One kid swore I was turbocharged and was dumbfounded when I popped the hood lol.

Well the S/C and cam are in finally! Tune needs a lot of tweaking, but here are a couple short videos of idle and reving:

Found my problem, cylinder 5 plug wire was melted. Just replaced it and took it for a test drive...it left me shaking afterwards

If I don't encounter any problems then I should hopefully be at the track this Friday. Feels like it will be in the 13's without a doubt, just how far into them is the new question.

Will try to take some videos tomorrow and post them up.
