I don't think he can run that on bolt ons alone. It appeared that he ran a 13.8 on motor, which I can believe, but a 13.4 with that weight and just bolt ons is pretty far fetched IMO. Doesn't really matter if it can or can't though, cause this entire thread has been intended to get some grudge matches anyway.
We'll ****....someone find a 4x4 to race me in memphis that runs somewhere from 13-14's all motor, cuz i dont spray.

Sounds like a good idea.

slowprocess, in my opinion he can get a 13.4 all motor. We are actually shooting for a 12.8 all motor. Keep in mind that he is a quad cab and he will be running slicks and 17" aluminum wheels instead of 20's on street tires weighing in at 5400lbs track prep. How much does your truck approximately weigh at track prep? He got a lil sumthin sumthin done to the truck since he ran that 13.9, but high 12's are coming. No doubt, you have a bad *** truck and I can't wait to see some of these grudge matches. This is all in fun anyway.

Lots of fun. Where is Cleveland Mississippi at, I'm in Columbus MS. I still think I can get down to low 14's high 13's. I still have a comp 268 cam to put in along with beehive valve springs, an Edge 2800 Converter, Transgo shift kit, Roll Pan, and some 17's with slicks. Then I'll be happy with my times.

We're about 3 hrs south of Memphis......just about dead center between Memphis and Jackson. Straight west of Grenada. I know you'd be happy with the times after those mods!

Not really......we have a track in Greenville, but it doesn't hook for ****, the end of the track SUCKS, and they're timing system is extremely questionable. It's an ok place to go screw around with slower cars/trucks that think they're fast, but not to go get your best timeslips.
We always go to Hattiesburg to get some good racing/timeslips down.

I'm pretty sure you'll be fine without one at this meet.
