Don't forget the stock cannister mounted 130,000mi. old lift pump I do have my 70hp injectors though. Before I do anything else though, I have to solve my fuel starvation problem. I can feel towards the end of the run, that the engine starts cutting out. I guess that's to be expected though, cause after the 1st 100ft. my fuel pressure gauge drops to zero and never regains until I back out after the timing lights. I will not be running again until this problem is solved for fear of damaging the CP3. I bet I can pick up a consistent 1/4-1/3sec. once I get my Walbro retrofit kit put in.

I may need glasses, but i've only seen one lightning brak 12's, it wasn't anywhere near stock and i'm approx 1,200 ft above sea level. but i did watch a 3/4 ton dodge ext. cab swb burn all 4 through the christmas tree at rogersville, mo. and props on showing the approx. 4000 lb lighting what an 8000 lb truck can do. my hats off to ya, regardless of what the critics say.



P.S their just jealous, it's ok, lol

The Wifey saw that burnout episode also. That was the slowest 60 foot the truck has ever ran and it was a 1.93 with a 13.31 pass .
