What is it that I don't believe? I haven't challenged your post count. I have just asked what your details are, at the same time mentioning your post count just shows you don't chat much with us. Big deal? No, but it explains me wanting to know the details.
sounds like a demand to me.
I don't see what the big deal is. the thing will probably last another 100,000 miles if he doesnt do anything stupid with it. Thats why nitrous is awesome, it rewards people that have self control.
post counts on here don't mean jack ****. some of the fastest guys don't say a damn word because people just love to be a smartass to the newbie or call them liars. so they would rather not even put up with it. its like that on ANY of the performance forums I am on, there is a small click of certain 3+ post per day guys, and the rest of the people are the subserviant pissants who catch hell for anything they post that goes against the norm.
looks like the last few posts prove my point nicely

i guess my little turbocharged 5.3L will get questiond too. i did alot of the work on Joes truck and tuned it too so what is it that you all would like to know? i will be more then welcome to give my input on this since it is my set up i did on that truck and a few others too. give me a couple of weeks and my STOCK internal 5.3 with our custom turbo kit,cam,springs,push rods and crank pulley ONLY on the motor, will see a 10.80 but pushing more for a 10.50. i will be more then glad to post step by step what i did on my truck and on Joe's truck. i will be more then welcome to build more of this to sell toomy 08 turbocharged truck is very streetable, if i tell you that it doesn't have a cam you would probably beleive me because this thing does not make noise only when you step on it
Congrats on the badass time, the truck runs great. I would like to put in my two cents since I took the time to drive 10 hours down to the valley and run. The day I ran it was hot and humid and DA sucked. I was expecting it to be cold since it was december and instead I got 68 degree weather. My truck ran the best that day than it ever had and I imagine that on a zero DA day it would have been even better. At home I have a best of 12.3 and I ran an 11.50 overthere. I did change my tune and add caltracs between those times so it is not a perfect comparison but I think that is a fast racetrack and I will most likely go back again to get a new best. I think your time is possible and I am looking into your setups to run good times too. In fact I just traded in my 228 230 cam for a 239 250 so I hope to be in the 10's with yall this year. Congrats again.
You might be surprised at how well the factory engine is engineered. I would put up a stock factory short block up against a lot of built engines out there same CI, same CR. Maybe one of the reasons this truck runs so good is because nobody has been into the short block. I believe your NA times are possible given the below sea level DA. I ran 10.50's with a stock bottom end 01 LQ4 @ 4850LB 4x4 5000'+ DA in Vegas. I think your 05 with the stronger rods, in a lighter 2wd might hit low 10's If you sneak up on it, and don't nip a piston. I know how you feel, I had people questioning my stock bottom end 6.0L until I blew it up in front of them. Now they talk **** because I was boosting a stock engine. Can't ever win...
But, at least from my eyes, you got attention the same way Joe is...you're braggin on "stock" bottom. If you caught any real **** its because you are braggin about the stock internals can handle it...you actually proved that it can't. ****, your **** was unrecognizable. Just like Joe and many more of us truck enthusiasts will prove time and time again...yes we can make these motors go fast as hell but they can't handle it like a built or forged motor could. Not to say you can't over push the boundaries of a built motor either.
ls1CANTU since you seem to know the most about Joe's setup and you said you guys will indeed discuss his setup, you guys mentioned the heads were milled. What compression is he running? What do you have his timing set at? I am guessing with that kind of horsepower he is blowing by the MAF, any ideas of what kind of calculated flow he is seeing? Did he mention his shift points? Is he using a wideband? Are you just setting up his tune on a dyno only? You know what I mean? Get his AFR to ?? and then put it on the street and forget. What are the timing thresholds of this setup? On the dyno where did power fall off at as far as spark is concerned?
I am sorry guys, this **** sorta excites me...running these kind of times with a freaking stock 6.0 block, slapping a cam and set of heads on it. It just urks me for the opposite reason it urks you. Why can't I ask? If I was at the track with you, staring at the block...which would tell me nothing, I'd still ask these hundred questions. I think everybody wants the same thing here (for the most part) fast as possible and still be streetable, still hop it your truck on a sunday and help a brutha move his furniture.

I'm not worked up in the least. In all reality I've been in more BS slinging threads (on other forums) than 95% of the people on here. What I'm trying to say, is all these "pile on the n00b" threads do is chase away the real talent. you guys need less google gurus, and more real ones... (Not saying there arent guys on here with alot of real experience.) a new guy asking how to set lifter preload, for example, will get 10 answers from people doing a search, and 1 answer from someone who has actually done it and runs the engine every day. 5 guys that have never done it will dispute what the one says works and call him a moron because his results don't agree with what someone said in a book. So what does the 1 guy do? he says f it and doesnt post any more. That is what chaps my ***...
Just because you caught hell when you first started posting doesnt mean its ok for someone else.

I am not busting his *****. I am just wanting to know what's up with his setup, 10 posts or 200 thousand. He and others said they will talk about it. I have been asking.
