by the way got play with a gt on the way back he started to play but then quit, I think he kind got the idea that he was going to get stomped!!!

Good to hear that AP. Allen is the truck God.
Spring break is next week and i dont want to spend a bunch of money to go to S. Padre so im gonna sit on my *** and see if i cant get my tq converter installed. If i do then i can hopefully hook at the track and run a low 14. i wish i had money to get my gears so my trutrac could go in.

I think if you go this route you'll be happy, but I would really wish you could be the guiney pig for a TR224 on a 5.3 ECSB!!

you should seen my neighbor he was like I guess he was impressed to see all that in a truck!! but then what would he know he drives a ford!!

The instant torque of the 418 is truely amazing/addicting/awesome/tire burning
Anyone have a pair of slicks I can borrow for a pass or two?

I was playing around yesterday after I left your house and it is actually shifting decent and not slipping AS bad as it was. Glad we got you all fixed up and Allen took care of you. Im getting my new O2 sensors in this week and Ill go visit Allen too. So ur bro want to buy my subs? I want my W7 in SOOOOOO bad now. My buddy just got a 10W7 in a small ported box and mine is a 12W7 with a larger box so Im hoping it is going to sound good. Too bad you cant go to the GTG.

Yea, he can. You just tune your low, and high octane tables. Its not hard to tune fro 93 octane.
