This from the first time out with new short bed conversion

**Captainfab** · 05-04-2011, 11:24 PM

Cool....gettin a little air under the left front there

What kind of times were you getting?

bigjimzlll · 05-04-2011, 11:52 PM

9.50's
It should run 9.20's NA once we get everything figured out. I just added a 300 shot for a journey into the middle 8's

Jim,

What were you running before the conversion?

9.40's...at 145mph with 1.34 60'
The 9.50's 60' was 1.27 with a whopping 135mph.
We are going out this weekend to see if the bed cover picks up the MPH. If not I'll start messing with the carb(APD alky)1050
With the long bed I had a bed cover and when I made the 9.50 pass I had no bed cover.
Here's a video of it a Pinks all out in Sonoma. I went in deep and it ran a 9.55 in the heat.

Looks great!! I can't wait to get mine back to the track. I hope for 5.0's, maybe 4.9? in the 1/8th. We will have to lean on it awful hard, so we will see. Paul Baxter

I may be optimistic on my numbers. I went 5.50 on radials, not knowing what in the world I was doing. Hopefully, with the proper converter, and knowing quite a bit more about tuning, and 28x10.5 slicks, I can come close! My goal is to show the truck is stable at speed, and hopefully procure a larger engine in the future. I bet your truck still has a lot left in it. Paul Baxter
