Drag truck/Street toy build

Here's the trac-bar my brother made. I had a 3rd gen bar on it but the truck is too low to run anything except a custom one. I know it wouldn't be good for 4 wheeling because it'll push the axle to the side but the truck has 3 1/2" of total travel. 1 1/2" up and 2" down so I'm not worried about that. It's adjustable and really solid. Plus it doesn't go off the road. The dirtiest this thing will ever get is dust lol

It looks really close to the charge pipe but it's just the angle. There is a little room.
 
Got a little more done tonight. Spent way too long building a new trans dipstick. The old one got in the way of the piping and was kinked.

What size tires are on it? Just trying to figure out what my truck will look like with 29.5 tires

Those tires are 285/60/18. They measured out at like 30.4 inches. It has 28x14.5 16's for racing though.
 
have any good pictures of the truck from the side? And how do you like the JGS gate?

I'll look for some. I've ran a few things from them. The particulate filter and a few of their gates. It has all worked really good.

Subscribed..cool build, nice work!

Looking great! Nice fab work.

Thanks, I've been thinking of getting a torchmate plasma table or something similar. The time custom brackets and flanges take are rediculous.

Looks awesome- any idea on what it may weigh?

Thanks, It was roughly 6350 with me in it last time I weighed it. After all the stuff I've pulled off this time around, along with the aluminum dash I'm guessing it'll be 6000ish. Maybe a little under. Then after the cage I'm shooting for just over 6k.

Sounds like a sweet supper street set up
 
Well let us know, you have any idea what kind of power it's making at the crank?

With a 12mm dropping fuel psi and a 66/83 (fuel only)it made 864hp at the wheels so I believe that's roughly 1000 at the crank. Now it's got more fuel, a lot more turbo:evil, and a lot of nitrous. *nx* If it's not 1000-1100hp at the wheels it will have problems. :hehe: with a 13mm I'm hoping for 1300+
