My anemic 318 2bbl with 2.76 gears ran 16.1 one time. I’m sure with 318willrun’s magic he’ll at least touch 15s while simultaneously getting 4 mpg lol

Give us a guess for the truck! We'll add it to the list !!!

Parts have shipped.... used some of @fishmens67 advice/suggestions. Thank you

If you own a Dragy you can toss 3.23s in the truck real quick and do some out of town testing. Give us a bit more data. Just a thought.

I don't have a Dragy... it would be nice though. I'll just have to go off of if it runs out of RPM's too quickly.

 

[jrc4y4]

I’ll go middle of the pack at 15.3

I have a Dragy that you could borrow sitting right here. Send me a PM if interested.

I appreciate it! But my luck, it would get lost in the mail. I'll just go off how I feel and then get it down to the track. Thanks though

mid to high 13's with your ability to tune, a bunch will be gained when you open up the heads and put in a complimenting camshaft, Whiplash or something similar

 

[318willrun]

@fishmens67 Give us a number..... not a range

 

[Turbo440Dart]

@TT5.9mag flies his magnum flag proudly so he won’t give that 440 any credit.
