Gives me much to consider. I’m to the point with mine that I’m unsure what’s next. Reached my initial goal of 11’s pretty quick. I’m concerned that dropping in a converter will cause issues if I decide to trailer my race car. Anyone have input on that?

I still have a boatload of suspension parts to install.

Whipple that bitch. I just bought a new converter from Circle D so I can tow with my regular cab again. Call them and tell them what your wanting to use the truck for.

Good call. I’ll inquire with them, I’ve dealt with their tech guys in the last and they’re pretty responsive.

Whipple, you say?

Last weekend my wife said, “You should supercharge this truck after you pay it off.”

Me: “Does that mean I can turbocharge it before I pay it off?”

”Don’t push your luck *******.”

Story time:Two weeks ago, tried (and failed) to lower it but shitty parts led to wrecked aftermarket ball joints. Won’t use IHC again.







Returned it to stock then ordered the KellTrac/Viking long travel coil overs that I wanted in the first place. Now I’ll have a complete set.


Finally installed that differential brace, though.






Fast forward to today and I “reverse leveled” the truck and installed the KellTrac street/strip shocks. Gonna make a couple 4wd dig hits to see if I’ve gained any traction.



2” shackles



Removed the 1.25” blocks



Kelltrac Street/Strip shocks



Gonna rock this awhile until I collect more parts.



Kelltrac long travel coil overs!

L&M Engines is close to releasing cams for Gen 4 Coyote trucks and I’m 110% upgrading whenever possible. It’ll be nice to make power beyond 6900 rpms like a true Coyote. I have the intake to support power to 8k (which I doubt I’ll spin it that high) and the current generation heads are better than previous. Power to be made!

More to come!

No progress to speak of lately but I am planning to hit a test & tune in a few weeks. I'll be happy just to get into the 11's in this BS Gulf Coast climate.

Happy to report that I've stomped numerous S550's and Scat Pack Challengers/Chargers from red lights. She hasn't been the best roll racer, though. Win some, lose some but they're always impressed when we talk after.

"I thought it was a stock truck with a muffler" is the general consensus.

Mission Accomplished.
