It'd be a good run, but really its up to you two, and how you drive. You can have the fastest truck with the most hp and torque, but if you can't handle it you can still lose. Be safe whatever happens!

75 hp added is about the limit of your stock Tq Converter..... and without billet shafts, I would not build boost on the start line (5-7 psi might be OK).

If your still running stock tires (265's) and launch in 4x4, I think you would take him. Does he have a 7.2L or a 6.0L engine? 6.0 is faster, when they hold together.
