    Garage Sale - Some serious goodies inside :)

    Ok, need to make some room and free up some funds for the syclone, so it's time for a bit of a garage sale :) All prices are plus shipping. I am always open to offers, but please try to be reasonable :) I will ship the larger items if the buyer is willing to pay the packing and shipping costs...

    I have a need to speak publicly about a vendor - PLEASE READ

    For a change, it's good news :) I have not spent a lot of money with George Blake / Prime Gears. George does not have a heavy financial motivation for providing me with assistance. However, he has spent a substantial amount of time on the phone with both myself and the tranny builder working on...

    Considering a new plate for the Sy... <vote within>

    Since my Syclone will (in theory) be seeing some substantial street time in the near future, I am going to finally get off my lazy ass and get a custom plate for it. Since I have a plate frame for the truck which reads: Gone Lightning Hunting Back in 12.9 Seconds I was considering getting...

    Best brake pads for stock fronts?

    I will be upgrading to an aftermarket brake kit in the next few months, but these front pads don't seem like they will last until then. I need to replace them as soon as the truck goes back on the road (again), and would like to get a quality set. For those of you out there with stock front...

    Best way to measure 0-60 in our trucks?

    I was curious, what is the most accurate way to measure 0-60 in our trucks? I've heard that G-Tech's aren't accurate because of our initial launch (not sure how true this is). I know that there is some voodoo math you can do to convert 60 foot times into 0-60. Does anyone know the true, best way...

    BACKSPACE to run 275's up front?

    I'm trying to figure out size for my drag wheels. I need to run a 275 width tire up front, and have the option of either an 8" wheel, or a 9" wheel. For either of these widths, can someone tell me what the correct backspace would be? I've tried doing the math a few times now, and I keep getting...

    Who has never had any issues with their truck?

    We hear all the time about people breaking parts left and right, and always having major issues with these trucks. I'd like to take a look at the other side of the spectrum. I was wondering... Who here has never had any problems with their truck while owning it? :) - Matt

    Pictures of my new FMIC

    So the Front Mount Intercooler I had custom built by Spearco came in yesterday. I have to be honest and say that I am less than blown away by the quality of the product I received. The core has numerous dented fins and is more white than aluminium (oxidation from sitting on a shelf I guess). To...

    Buy a 12 bolt, or build the 10 bolt? Also, what vendors on here sell a 12 bolt?

    I am getting to the point in my build where I need to start thinking about the rear axle. I plan on making some serious HP wiht this truck, and need a rear end set up that will hold FOR SURE. Not "It should stand up to the abuse for a while", but something I can count on, especially when there...

    Custom Intercooler - What company?

    I have finally gotten the dimensions for the intercooler I need sorted out, and am now trying to find someone who can build what I need. I am already talking to Bell, Spearco / Turbonetics, and Precision Turbo (PTE). Is there anyone else that you guys suggest I contact? Core dimensions if...

    E85 crew - Any drop in intake temps?

    I was just curious if anyone on here who has gone from 93 pump gas to E85 had the opportunity to compage before/after intake temps. I know that when using alky injection, one of the great gains you realized was a drastic drop in IAT readings. Was curious to see if a pre-mixed fuel like E85 would...

    Just ordered a great new toy for the SY <evil grin>

    If you have ever spent much time in South Florida, you quickly learn that it is the Land of Old People... and they ALL DRIVE. This leads to much frustration on the road, as they never seem to see anyone/thing in their path, and your horn falls on (literally) deaf ears. Well, no more...
