Hot damn I got this truck to hook like a "Hell Tra" last night. :cheers
First pass was just getting a feel for it with the new driveshaft and pinion angle adjustment, then it was 3 bottle passes. First two I brought it on to early and lit the tire up. So far it seems if I spray about 4600+rpms which is around 5 MPH it holds it.
New goal is out of the bag, I want 9's. Will it happen? shit I don't know but i'll try for it. I think the truck has a little more in the 60" and I think a 50 shot would bump it up into the 108MPH area. Should be close, look forward to trying! :razz:

Congrats. Ive been talking about adding nitrous for years. Looks like the only way for me to keep up after the 60' is to finally do it.

I think the V band on the headers and a 50 shot will get you in the 9's.

Thanks for the support guys!

I agree, not real sure what else to do on the drivers side header. The 3/8 flange jba header has had better days, it pushes the exhaust seal after even street driving, keeping me down on boost. I'd guess there is around 40psi back pressure on my setup, that's not helping the matter.
Bad mo'fo Bob maybe seeing me real soon for some help on that.

Could you possibly go to a larger exhaust housing on the turbo to get the back pressure down?

I didn't know the truck had a 4.8, I thought it was a 5.3 or 6.0. That's real impressive for a stock 4.8L.....good job.

I'm the fastest truck by .5 second now, theres only 2 other "known" trucks that broke 10's on 4.8s. Well see about 9's, i'm sure I got a hand full of parts looking to cry uncle as it sits currently and I'm still a little short on power.
This Z is the quickest I believe in a swap setup. 9.3's on pump gas.

You should be able to get it into the 9s. Even though a little lessdisplacement that ls motor is superior to oursbuilt because of the cylinder heads primarily.

I'm tryin to get them to give a srt jeep on motor some justice if they shoot. They said they don't run on motor.

I've been told that, but I'm not really kicking but there. My 862 GM heads are the worst flowing heads GM makes. Also got the old smaller intake and smallest throttle body made.
I got better parts options out there, but I've always been able to make more power with the power adders. Just keeping it simple, boost=speed , bottle = more speed.
Could you possibly go to a larger exhaust housing on the turbo to get the back pressure down?
It's more of a turbine wheel flow issue then the .96 housing. I'd rather focus the size of the next snail on a forged bottom setup.

Congrats Rob, thats rolling for sure. Dont know if you notice it in the video but with you getting it to 60 like that now those cal tracs are lifting the rear, your right there where I was with them with respect to 60' and once I hit them harder they would fully extend the spring and unload to the front.
