my 84 is slow, my s10(4cyl, auto) is very slow, now the camaro is another story. Took it out for a shakedown after the new motor went in. First day off the trailer it went a 5.20 (1/  which was pretty good for new new setup. New motor on alcohol for the first time and still doing that good, hmmmmm, I see some high 4's on the horizon........... next we do the 69 camaro for the 10.5 tire class. The motor's done, the chassis is being built, looking for some 4.70's out of it.... a blown 640 and alky is a truly wonderful thing to experience.

that website doesnt come up?

[RSBAD454]

i saw your truck on www.dragtrucks.com, sick ass truck pulling the wheels up posey......

[84 silverado]

picture this, last run of the season for the motor. Just make a pass and we'll pull it down over the winter when then season is slow...... easier said than done. One pass, a light dose of spray, runs a nice 5.08 even after lifting for a small bit of tire shake.............. crossed the line, shook a bit, let off and clunk. Yep, just plain clunk and nothing. Hmmmm, somethin' ain't right here boys and girls. Pulled it down yesterday and to our total dismay, the oil pickup came off, lost pressure for a sec(not good for a big motor at 7500rpm) and #3 and #4 rods spun........ got hot and kicked a rod off #3 cylinder. The block will live, the crank is junk, broke two pistons, two rods(1 broke, the other hot) and hurt the cam. I'm really glad the brodix's lived though.......... frikken head work is pricey. Anyway, now we start on the big motor for next year!!!!!  oh yea, broke my giggered sheetmetal oil pan too.... now THAT pissed me off!!!!

[bored and stroked]

OUCH! Your going to weld that pickup on the pump with the new motor now arent ya?

Everyone should, this happens more then most people relize.

[84 silverado]

oddly enough the pickup tube WAS welded in two different spots. Maybe we should weld them ourselves next time........

[bored and stroked]

It was welded? DAM now thats just not fair!  Yeah Id either weld it yourself or slap some JB weld on the next one for the heck of it.

[LOHRTBT]

Not yet..
After this winter and a couple of ummm..goodies. I plan on running it, shooting for 13.50's.  I will be happy with a 4000lb 15 year old truck full of stereo equip running that.  

[83CHEVY]

Those 2WD's only weigh 4000?  I wish my '83 K10 Longbox only weighed that.  I hauled a bunch of junk to the landfill a few weeks ago - they wiegh you coming and going to know how much to charge you.  My truck, with me in it was 5100 Lbs - HEAVY!!!  I will need about 600 horsepower to get a 13.50 quarter.  LOL!
