I don't think that changes Junkie's comment. What are your realistic power goals with the setup in that car? I see LSX427 with whipple. Planning on nitrous also?

This C/10 isn't the first car that Junkie has built, let alone not the first vehicle he's had that's single digit 1/4mile performance.

That's the fun of racing, isn't it? You never know what the other guy can do, until you do it.

All the same things can be said of us .

Very true. This car (truck) who knows. I know his Supra was well into the single digits. Cant remember exactly but I know it went 8s.

Cant speak for my own car, I hope mine does 9s, time will tell.

Realistic power number for your setup? His is stated at "around 1000." Should be similar to what I expect from mine.

We've had cars and drivers go below 7 seconds. The C15 was my Dad's truck, built for fun.

The motor originally dyno'd very high. Well north of the goals listed here. We detuned it for street duty -not hard to bring it back. Here's a hint,that's a 510 cubic inch Whipple, not a standard 2.3L.

Also, sorry for the the thread de-rail.

I love these trucks. Have a few of 'em. Looks like you're off to a great start,

I do not think so. Most of it is done but we aren't rushing it, as of now the truck is registers for the Texas Speed Syndicate Runway Rivalry and it was easily make that event.

Sounds like a fun race to me! I are planning on plumbing a dry spray bar system into the intake if I'm not happy with how we get it to leave on boost, which is likely. The 4L80 Tbrake situation isn't to my liking yet, so I'm avoiding that for now.

Understood entirely. Keep at it, where's the progress pics?
