Nice! That truck flat gets it done. Have you run it on motor in the 1/4?? If so how did it do?? What was the 1/8 to 1/4 mph??? Thanks!

69trk · 11-09-2008, 07:38 PM

very nice, exact same time i ran in the 8th, but my 60ft was a 1.58.

Thanks! No I've never ran the 1/4. It's 120 miles to the closest 1/4 mile track. Should run high 12's on motor.

Here's a video of a motor pass. I was racing a Magnacharged 5.3L Silverado. I ran 8.22@84mph and he ran 8.50@82mph.

Thanks! You have a good running truck. Have you sprayed it yet?

69trk · 11-09-2008, 10:32 PM

no not yet, still planning on getting a newaluminum gas tank to go under the bed 1st. Then i'm going to try to get 10.90's on the motor before i spray it.

Thanks! that would be cool! But that's to far for me to go.

69trk · 11-11-2008, 06:33 PM

Do you know what kind of power you're making? How much spray to run the 7.18?

No I don't. I've never had it on a dyno. I have the 200hp jets in the plate, but it's the small solenoid NX Hitman kit so it's probably not 200hp. It would probably run a little better with a NX Gemini Twin kit.

Nice videos! Way to represent the 67-72s!!

blacktruck · 11-12-2008, 06:50 PM

383, you've got some great videos. i wish my '72 would run like that. what have you done as far as suspension? it looks like it hooks pretty well.

Nothing, stock trailing arms. It's lowered about 4 inch's. I'm running 28x10.5 ET Drag slicks.

blacktruck · 11-15-2008, 03:26 AM

stock trailing arms? really. how'd you lower it?

1.56 60' That's pretty impressive for a 28x10.5 in a heavy truck.

Eibach 4" drop spings with doetsch shocks in the rear. In the front, 2.5" drop spindles and a coil cut off the stock springs with gabriel shocks.

blacktruck · 11-25-2008, 06:23 PM

impressive for what you got in it. i might have to duplicate your setup. how did the pinion angle act when you dropped it 4" out back? it's got a nice stance.

screwballl · 11-25-2008, 07:44 PM

that looks and runs great! keep up the good work

It went from 2* down to 0*, so I put 4* shims between the trailing arms and rearend. Seems to work fine.
