So when do we see some real videos?

A few videos posted in the original post. Couple quick acceleration runs. Hopefully add more soon!

Sweet!

Did 100 on the freeway today. Seems to pull just as hard from 70-100 as it does from 50-70

Loved the videos, the trucks sounds very good. Nothing like that supercharger whine to make you want to get on it.

The vids are sweet! Lovin' the S/C whine.

Gee, I wonder why the gas gauge is on "E"?

Thanks! Too bad I have to keep my windows up if I want to hear the whine. Stupid exhaust drowns it out with them down.

The gas gauge is always on E now

Sweet videos, Do you have a full mod list? Just curious, your truck seems slow(er, then my 98), do you have a shift kit? that will add some getup and go!

No physical shift kit, I think its all just line pressure. I think what it is is that the speedometer is off a little bit and the shift settings are off. I think it is about 6-7 mph off because it used to shift from 2-3 at 80 and now its showing it shift at a little over 70. I can't remember if I had Westers change my speedo calibration or not. Maybe shift points are a little off? I noticed that too though, the acceleration up to about 40 doesn't seem as quick but it sure feels much faster in the seat. I was watching a speedo video from before the whipple and they don't seem too much different but it definitely feels faster.
