Thats because its a purple turbo I guess a 71/74/16(a5k) is close to the same size as a 64/71/16ss right?

Oh, no, I understand, but I have no reason to fib ya... DD it really does, with a load, not so much... I put that in there, I thought...

Thanks, buddy... I still have your number. You got mine, too...

It's possible. I don't discredit it, I have seen some things with our trucks.


You could take trucks 5,679,776 and 5,679,777 off the assembly line that are exactly the same, down to the paint codes even, and they will react differently to the same two mods. (possibly)

I raced a guy in a chevy with just a custom EFI live tune and a modified stock turbo, and he beat me by 1/10 if a second... and here I have close to 14k in my truck. The point to this is you never know what is possible.

Anything is possible. Put it in the, "I'm not sure, but I don't know for sure' file. I believe it's very possible.

Plus, my truck with the same mods, but with a smarty vs edge are day and night. The differences and variables of these trucks are incredible.

Ok, novel story off...


(how many times did I say possible? )

Drag racing 90% driver, 10% truck. Its going to take a lot more than 14k to make up for the 90% that is lacking.

Have you visited Mt. Fuji yet?
