You're welcome! I wasn't around in '05, but as you say it wouldn't have been any different then either. It's a shame really, but what do you do about it? Go and make even more power, right?!!!
Like I said in a previous post, anyone over 500HP is doing great things in my book, so making over 700 is HUGE! Even with correction factors etc. you are still killing everyone else at this time. Nitrous or not, as JQMile told me, you still need a good base number to start from. It's a bit like an assault on Everest isn't it, gotta have a base camp first.
Keep it up mate, and if I ever have the chance and/or means to start brewing a serious engine, I'll know who I'll be going to for help.
Cheers,
Keran

Whats the address of that gasser floor dyno you just broke the record on? I think I'm gonna head that way once I get the clutch installed.

Hardly .

As Stomp has pointed out, I am not one going for the record.

I just hold us VE guys to a higher standard.

Bill; at 2000' elevation he still made about 60 more hp than you. There is no taking that away.
When he gets to sea level that gap will widen.

I sure would like to go to Schieds some time and try out Dunbars dyno but, based on my trap speeds and other dyno info I know it will spit out the same number.

I take that back.
At 500' elevation it just might be my highest uncorrected number yet.
Uh-oh. Now i'm thinking.

Nicely done Stomp. What is this event on the 15th? I may have to try to pop up for that one. It was nice meeting you up at Piers in '05 and seeing your rig on the dyno. Seems like yesterday but forever ago at the same time.

Kudoo's Stomp! Correction or NOT, you still have the highest HP VE around.

I noticed a couple on here who are chronic complainers on more than this site...

Hey thanks for the kind words.It was nice to meet you guys too. I really like your truck, especially the front bumper, gotta make me one of those. When I do decide to turn it up, I will give you a holler and let you know what I want to get out of it, and what ya recommend . Right now I have it in the garage getting ready to kill the KDP and Im thinking about putting the 366 spring in while I'm at it. . Don't let the haters get you down!

No everyone is haters. I was maybe pushing a little asking what the numbers were because for days it was like a big secret. Then when STOMP got heated and did his post I thought I'd send him a PM away from the issues in public view and appologize for being pushy about the numbers. I could care less about the correction factor stuff, but still no reason to be so defensive. Anyway, after sending an appology and congrats I never got a responce. Anyone can read back thru what I had posted on here, I dont think I was rude and I even said I dont doubt the 700+ claim. I was just curious what the numbers were. I gotta say though, I was a little disapointed to have no responce of any kind.

PM sent WOW you are a little pushy it has been sitting in my inbox for three days. Yes I am still on vacation, but I cant even enjoy it without being a little worried about what is being said about me.

Thank you to everyone that is showing their support for me.
