And which track record? Quickest manual VE? Or going after the all-time record of 12.56?

GHLS's is one of the coolest though. At over 5500 feet elevation It can still pull off a 13.3-13.5 and it's a club cab 4x4.
13.8
13.8

Cant tell you all my secrets, but it involves lots of injectables. I told Jeremy (stomp) when I talked to him last. Just hope he doesnt use nitromethane too. Hahaha

Im betting on going against what everyone says is possible, going very fast down the 1/4 with a 5 speed. The only reason manual diesels are considered slow is because the respool and launch. I think I have ways to deal with that and run some suprising times. I can spool and spray my way between shifts.
Dont think im in the playing field with JQ and a 97x whp auto, but it would be a fun time at the track.

It's gotten slower since he raced the vette. I can't remember what he said he did. But it was a couple years ago and I remember him posting it was a tad not as fast as it once was. Still awesome though

I've been starting to think lately, with the amount of miles my '90 has on the original pump, that pump must be well worn at this point, but not to the point that it won't idle when hot, luckily. Now that I've been thinking, when I dyno'd back in Aug. 2010, it laid down 263hp/610ft. lbs with all the mods you see, minus the PS i/c and 5x.012 injectors. I was running 4x.014s and a Banks i/c then. I was hoping to and guessed that it would make at least 250hp but wondering if I could have made more with a healthier pump. With a manual trans and good clutch, I know there was no slippage.

I am glad to hear that you have it up and running down the road again. It should be exciting to see what it is going to be capable of when you get it dialed in.
Looks like I might be headed to San Antonio for a class on Feb 13th-17. If I get the confirmation for my enrolment I will give you a call and see if we could meet up.
