dude! I read the entire thread about your buildup, but I never saw a video of one of your runs. DO you have a video of a good 10-11 second run?
Love that truck!

still working out the bugs. The best it has run yet is a 12.03. The fixed carb came back today so hoping for a 11.70 this weekend. Going to talk my dad into installing the nitrous over the winter so we can run 10.90's
Thanks ken. I need to start taking the truck to Weight watchers. On the scale it weighed 3910 with me in it. Last time I weighed it, it weighed 3820 with no driver, so it is a little lighter.

i like the shaved drip rails i think im going to do mine was it a pain? you should shave your handles it easy just keep the locks and rebend the rods to go from the lock to the latch. also what kit did you use on the front thanks. ,
The front springs are cut down I increased the diameter of the springs then cut to size next is road test to determine if I need to go up another size and cut them to hight last will be to bend the axles to get the geometry to its proper setting Oh yes the drip rails can be a pain but first you must have your door pins in good shape and the door lined up as it should be then set the gap at the top of the door weld in you filler if needed, and concentrate on body filler to get the top gap looking as even as the rest of the door just take your time you did the handles this isn't any more difficult.

Is that Orange? if you sell it you gotta keep me in mind, it looks pretty solid, What's wrong with it?
