Who's got the power?
Just curious everyone, How much Horse Power do u got? Have you ever took it out to the track? Whats your time? I wanna build a nice truck but I want the power their when I ask for it. I dont want a trailer queen, but I dont want a drag truck. Something in between.

Re: Who's got the power?
13.5 IS quick, especially if he can do that at 6000 ft Damn this mile high air.
My old 85 w/zz4 4:10 700r, best time I pulled here was 15.01. My blazer w/454 th 400 3:73 and lots of cam should be quicker once I get my gears and eaton installed next weekend.

Re: Who's got the power?
and especially since these trucks are about as aerodynamic as a brick.
I just wasn't sure what the guy on the video said, I would love it if my truck would do high 13's

Re: Who's got the power?
my son ran the truck a few times.his company at the time rented out the drag strip for a company picnic and employe's and their families could drag race complete with the officials,timing,and even an announcer.i'm going off memory here from a few year's back.but,i think it was in the 15's at 90 some miles an hour.does that sound right ? i even have a video clip of it.if i can find it.

Re: Who's got the power?
My old roommate had an all steel 47 Chevy running the 1/4 in the 9s. And that is at altitude! Come run 'em up here and you will think something broke. It makes a world of difference.

Re: Who's got the power?
I've got about 600hp w/350th, 4.11 gears, spool, 2800 stall, pair of predator carbs for tha track (when I get it there), decent built 402, just got tha truck and got it running about 2 weeks ago. Should be at the track soon. It feels pretty quick. Trans brake and spray to come.

Re: Who's got the power?
The 355 that WAS in my '73 got it to 14.6 @ 92mph.
The current 468 hasn't run yet, but is will be making around 520 HP and about the same in torque...according to the builder. Hope to be in the 12's when I get it to the track.
