Ed, look at that ET gap between you and stroker boys (Robert, Les) though (and the oddfire goofball).

ok im confused? who is "the oddfire goofball?"

MATT

You (and Doc) and Ryan are the only oddfire goofballs I can think of.

I just dont know how to compare oddfire to evenfire. Displacement for displacement I would not expect evenfire to be very far behind oddfire. I would expect very little difference between them (I am not aware that the firing sequence explicitly contributes to more power in oddfires). I dont know how much boost you run but is it well over the 25psi very fast evenfires are running?

My point is this: given an oddfire and evenfire with the "same" cam and heads and turbo and such, I would not expect there to be much difference, for a given level of boost, between the power generated by each engine.

So I would like to think that it does NOT take a stroker motor to break into the 9's, using you as an example, but I cant be sure that there is something I dont know about oddfires that makes them inherently more powerful.

Hey Matt, at least you get to be just a goofball - I'm a damn stroker boy! Come to think of it, I have been married for a while now............ :p

Congrats on the new best time, Ed. Keep it coming. It's fun seeing someone hit it hard and be rewarded for their efforts.

Although, according to some people here, thats not really a syclone anymore but I think its cool as sh!t..

CONGRATULATIONS. But I do know of at least two ten sec trucks here in Michigan, that aren't on the board a lot. So realisticly you are probably about 6th or 7th on the list if you count those trucks.

Just wanted to let you know. No offense taken.

congrats on the timeslip ed, you've worked for it. so you've got a th400 in the truck, who gives a shit if it didn't come that way from the factory. if the insurance company considers it a syclone, it has a syclone vin, technically it's a syclone. and a fast one at that.
