Might head away from 4x4

You are allowed to have fun. You paid your dues 10x over. Do it!

Besides the wife can't have a faster ride than you'd right?
That's what she said. Literally.

yup need a Vette Blazer head to head at the track loser does the dishes lol :burnout:
My wife is old school. I have not done dishes, if she is home, in years.

Does it need to be a K5? Or you just want something fast? :thinking:

:popcorn:
Looking for fast and fun. Wanted another 2wd K5 (C5?). So best of both worlds.

ORRRR ... you could build a rock bouncer for the best of both worlds. :D
It's a funds thing also.

1/8 on motor with 4500 stall high 6's 6.8. With 3300 stall 125 shot 6.0, with 500 shot low 5's. Best was 5.2 at 135. 60 foot 1.3.
Does he have the slip to prove it? I would take some of that stuff with a grain of salt without paper to back it up. But maybe I'm cynical.

Says he has a book on the build, upgrades and every run listed with atmospheric conditions logged with time slips attached. He was serious.
 
We are trying to set up a time to go see it. Maybe the 26th. Its 3.5 hours,,one way. Will see the book then.
 
A big ASSumption of course, but based on how thorough the guy seems to be with his data acquisition and record keeping I'm hoping he was as meticulous with the engine build and parts chosen. Nitrous is great for power, but like you are saying it's also great at melting internals when the tune isn't just so. That's one of the reasons I asked if it had multiple kits, then you can learn to tune it with the much smaller shots first.

I'd rather go turbo(s), but they are more spendy and also have great potential to melt shit when the tune isn't right.
