I love this quote "owning a 10 second import is like coming out of the closet, when its all said and done, you are still just gay"

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
it has a 402 big block in it... but im putting my motor in it.. 462 big block.. and i gota 250 shot to go with it. :) i hope it will run 11's!!! what do you guys think? my 462 has about 550 horse... my new truck has ladder bars, coil overs, 9 inch posi, 3.73's, 22 inch wide tires. the whole 9 yards of a pro street truck!!

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
I'm betting 10's.

1979blkchevy 01-28-2010 01:17 PM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
where did you find a hood with that much of a cowl on it? thats looks nice on the truck

1979blkchevy 01-28-2010 01:19 PM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
im glad to see you got your truck running i can remember when i was doing my first build it took me about 6 months to build the motor on the money i had and the day i went to crank it over for the first time i was so excited and my eyes got as big as golf balls it sounds just so good

drag_72 01-29-2010 01:11 AM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
you guys really think 10's? thatd be damn nice!! and the cowl hood was on it, when i bought it

ripdog28 01-29-2010 08:52 AM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
I doubt 10s, try closer to mid to low 11s.

drag_72 01-30-2010 01:08 AM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
on a 250 shot?

team39763 01-30-2010 01:50 AM

Re: Just a kid with a dream
 
I think 10's are possible, but I'm no expert. I figure that truck should be pretty light and on motor I'd think it would run in the 11's and 10's on spray. You should post up in Super73's engine/drag analyzer thread that's probably the best educated guess you can get.
