TMC Pass Time - Dan's turn

[DV2000NJ]

So I'm trying to get to the track Friday night if the rain holds off. Just like the TV show Pass Time, try to guess what I'll run.

Whoever's closest doesn't get any money, but if you're ever in NJ, I'll give you a great big hug.

The truck:
2000 Silverado Ext. cab 4x4
Cammed 6.0L ( more than likely somewhere between 325 and 350 rwhp, possibly less, possibly more).
3000rpm stall converter
3.73s
31" tall tires
Truck weighs somewhere around 5000 lbs

Have at it.

Oh, and my guess is a 14.3. :lol:

You think you'll be heading down, or not worth it with the chance of rain?

Oh and I was in NJ, Visited friends in Forked River, went to the board walk in Point Pleasant Beach for a day then took the Parkway all the way up to NY. How far off the Parkway do you live?

[CJ Hungus]

I'm gonna go with a 14.28. I hope you beat this but It would be a great time for such a beast of a truck! :thumbs:

[dietz4ibanez]

15.1 :D

[Zembonez]

If I remember right, you were in the 16.75 range before right? Losing 1.5 seconds would be a huge 1/4 mile improvement. Hopefully you'll even beat that. If you get in the 14s, you really did something!

I'm sticking with 14.88

14.3ish

I'm sticking with 14.88He also cleaned some of that rust off. Weight reduction FTW. :dunce:

If you ask me.... he better be low 14's or even the 13's. Check out this guys truck from PT.net

I have a full weight 99 Silverado ECSB 4,450lb's its mods are.

6.0 LQ9
Hooker longtubes
3" hooker Y-pipe,single 3" 50 series Flowmaster
Compcam 208/212,554/558,114LSA
eaton posi,4.10 gears
ported T/B
160 thermostat
Tuned by me HP tuners
stock torque converter for now
stock wheels,with M/T drag radials

Im only running 13.7 at 102mph is that about right for this setup,what is slowing me down ? I just ordered a 3200 circle D converter.I do tow my car to the track with this still keep in mind ?? Is my single muffler restrictive ? Is my cam way to small ? Worth swapping out ?
He is running a mid-high 13's and he doesn't even have a verter. yeah he has posi and 4.10's but no stall.

and the fact that he is running huge effin tires. Get some smaller tires Dan!

I DO have a 3k stall, and that guy was running the stock converter. That truck's 2wd though no? That's an extra 250lbs that I have about as far forward as you can put it.

Oh, and Jim, my best time with the old engine was a 16.26. A 100+ HP and TQ gain, PLUS a huge amount more low end torque, PLUS the 3k 'verter, and I think low 14s should be attainable. Some aggressive weight reduction will happen at least once this season as well, but not today.

I guess we'll all find out in about 3 hours, it looks like the rain's going to hold off until 7 or 8pm.

I hope you slaughter my 14.88 guess Danno. I'm just basing it on what I've seen trucks here doing. I'll be very pleased if you prove me wrong! :thumbs:

[Darkanion]

I guessed what I believed to be a little high so I wouldn't have to worry about that hug you threatened us with! :jester:

I know you have a verter, that is why I said you are running a 3k stall and he was running a stock stall. I would think the verter would make up for the extra 250lbs? plus ur cam is a bit bigger. :dunno:

[Cowboy Cadillac]

14.96

[LMSeven]

Hmm. IDK Dan. I'll guess a low 14 :thumbs:

For the sake of the game, 14.35

[Zembonez]

Done yet? :dunno:

[Moeman]

12.0

[Alljackedup408]

:lurk:

[LMSeven]

Well if he doesn't have a helmet and broke into the 13's he'd be back by now :jester:

All in all a low 14 would be a good time for that massive truck. I'm guessing a trap around 95.

[Zembonez]

9.90

[DV2000NJ]

14.75.

There were some small things that added up to a slightly slower time, I'll update later.

So... my 14.88 was pretty damn close (as well as my prediction that 1.5 seconds would be the improvement factor).

Were you running on those meats in your sig? Stock tires around usually around 30"...

I was closer. :jester:

[DV2000NJ]

Yeah uh... I forgot. I forgot to call Pete, too. :lol:

It wouldn't have really been worth it though, the rain came about a half hour after they opened.

Yes you were. :lol:

Big improvement Dan! With some tuning / tinkering... you'll get even better. It takes a LOT of power to make a 5000 pound truck faster! Weight is a huge factor.

[Matt_]

You "uh forgot" or you "uh didnt want to get beat"? :D

[batman]

anybody want to race?! lol

[crmzendrgone]

Wait til you see his other car! HEHE:D

[JennaBear]

Not too shabby Dan!

[Alljackedup408]

all that for 1.5 seconds... :jester:


doesnt seem like much but thats a huge pick up. so wheres the sauce kit at??!? :thumbs:
