The RCSB will run 13.90 @ 99 or so. I dont remember what the Tahoe ran, however I would imagine it will be someplace in the 14's. Run him for the fun of it.

the tahoe i'd expect around a 14.7 or so. a really good one may run a 14.4.

i raced him once before i got my exhaust and i had a 87 hypertech tune. at 90mph his rear bumper was at my front tires. since then i have put in a cutout, changed intakes, got a nelson tune and i have a shaners S2 coming in around the midddle of next week.

it was the top end where he got me last time. i feel like my truck is alot stronger up top now, but i lost a little down low. not much though.

Better make sure he has not converted it and added boost

he has no clue wtf he's doing when it comes to adding power to it. he didnt know what i meant when i mentioned changing pullies and getting a nelson tune. he just wants to put gas in it and drive it wander if i can talk him out of his radix i could just steal it and he wouldnt even know the difference
