faster then i was thinking..
 
finally too out the truck with a bunch of friends for the first time after the new motor. and upgrades :metal:

fastest time out was a 17.00 with my 305/th350 (old setup)

(new set up)
fastest time out was a 14.01 -- couldnt break 13.99 had no helmet. so didnt mess with timming. but it had a bunch left in it.

if you'll look on your build thread, as I told you, put it in your sig. then we get back to that helmet thing. hardhead, no helmet. oh, just hardheaded period lol.
