This one has went 7.93 @ 175 and still has a truck frame. (you can see the box frame in the engine photo) Runs a 4-link setup out back but, still has all the factory interior and exterior panels in place, sans the CF tailgate. Furthermore, The engine is all Ford castings. Navigator heads that have been worked, stock Ford crank, and a GT aluminum block that's still sproting 330, factory sized cubes.
If you're not impressed by this rig, I don't know what to tell you...lol.

Damn, that looks serious
From your avatar it looks like you have a nice truck. Post up some more pics of your setup, although this site is mostly GM I believe we all share admiration for anyone who makes a brick fast no matter the make. Hell theres even some fast Dodges now

I'm already eyeballing a set of Ford GT heads and dreaming of twins up front with a relocated radiator and dry sump oiling steup. (I already have some of these parts) The bottom Darton MID sleeved bottom end should be good to 1500hp or so so no need to improve on that.
For now, I just want this setup to work and run a number. I'll be satisfied for a while with that.
Here are some old pics I took during the build.
And here's one from a magazine shoot back in '06. It still had the Kenne Bell s/c and only made 623rwhp/710rwtq back then.

No doubt you can make a Ford haul ***, but you gotta have DEEP DEEP pockets... I wonder how a fully forged 5.3 on race gas and 30 pounds of boost would run in a 3500 pound truck... Lookin at that black 7 sec lightning, I bet it don't weigh much more than that... None of the chevy guys do it because we have the option of just going bigger displacement...

Here's what I'd like to see....the fastest trucks in the nation at one track at the same time. If I only wanted to see what the Fords there, I'd have made it a Ford truck race. Obviously, I have a clue of what the Fords are made of. I want to see what the other makes have to offer. And don't think the domestics are all that's coming either. There's going to be some import competition there as well.
Can't wait to see everyone there!

that black lightning is nice...setup looks great,
i laughed a bit when i read that the lightning using the coil packs from a chevy, but in my situation its the other way around, i am using a ford distributor.....made me giggle a bit..
this event would be bad *** to attend with both of my trucks...hopefully i can have the real motor back in the Hauler and i would go..
When is the race??
