Horsepower and 1/4 mile
 

I have a few questions for those of you who have more experiance with the dodge diesel. I used to run a 99 Ford with a Hypermax Chip, 4-inch exhaust, 10k resistor mod, banks trans command and a powershot 2000 propane setup. The truck was a 3/4 ton, extended cab, 4x4. It ran 9.40's in the 1/8th mile, but I never got to run 1/4 mile with it. On the scales the truck weighed 6700lbs. Last summer I traded the ford in for a 2002, 1-ton, Cummins, Quad Cab, 5spd, 2 wheel drive. I had the truck on the scales at 6100 lbs. I straight piped it, added an Edge EZ, and a Powershot 2000 Propane setup. The propane is supposed to be 80 horse the way I am running it now. I also just got a Blue Chip Premium FMS which will go on in a couple weeks. I have a Banks Waste Gate actuator as well that was given to me. What kind of HP and torque numbers do you think the truck would pull with these mods? Also, what kind of 1/8th mile and 1/4 mile ET's do you see the truck running? By the end of the summer I want to add an AFE Megacannon, stage 3's, 5&quot; exhaust, and maybe a PDR turbo. I have a clutch already, but I am waiting for the stock one to go. It does slip some when I have my 44' trailer on. I also had a question on turbo's, I would like to go with an HX-40, but I am concerned about lag with the 5-spd. What would you guys go with? What would you expect for HP, torque, 1/8th mile, and 1/4 mile numbers with what I want to put on? Any answers would be great...<br><br>Thanks a bunch...

I almost forgot, the truck has 4.10's

&quot;but I am concerned about lag with the 5-spd.&quot;

As well you should be! ;) ;)

Gotta keep in mind, these are NOT race, or &quot;performance&quot; trannies, they are TRUCK trannies, designed to do WORK, not race - the automatics are FAR better suited, after appropriate mods, for racing use - my wife's Mazda 323 1.6 grocery getter will flat out run off and LEAVE me in a drag race - but strap 10,000 lbs on ech of them, and head 'em up a grade - noooo contest! ;D ;D

Ya sorta hafta match up the equipment to the expected task... Drag racing is NOT a 5 or 6 speeds stronger point! ;) ;)

No one has any ideas of how much power and what it will run? I know some of you guys out there have similar combo's.
