    1999 Ford 8.8 rear 3.73 Auburn locker

    X-Box teaser pics

    Well, I rethreaded the sparkplug hole in cylinder #3, since some jackass who has worked on my truck couldn't seem to screw it in correctly. I've also had the headers sandblasted to remove the "Jet Coating" ( which I really believe was just spraypaint, and not even hotpaint at that!) I then...

    flows up to 1200CFM max 18psi It fits in the BD-11a brackets. I have it on my truck now. Puts out about 5psi with a 2.7in upper pulley and a 6.5in crank pulley somewhere around 5500RPM. BTW that's in a 347, going through a large intercooler, and 5' of piping before the intake. Hope that...

    X-Box teaser pics

    We're hoping to have most things ironed out in the next 2 weeks. It does run and sounds like a dragster. It has moderate-severe exhaust leaks where the headers bolt to the heads. You can't even hear the geardriven blower! 500+ Hp to the tires is well within reach. Will post final pics...

    X_box!!! Post Your Damn Update In Here!!!

    Hey Guys, Sorry for the lack of posts. Since the progress has been painfully slow, I thought I'd wait till it was done. The truck is in the driveway. Here's an update, XB is installed along with headers, new intake, cam, stall converter, transmission, intercooler and some other misc...

    stroker kits

    Expo5.0, "Fool" is in the eye of the beholder. Just because I care who has the fastest particular vehicle doesn't mean anyone else has to care. There are a few people on this board trying to be a little faster than the next guy. So it's a grudge race between us. No one else has to join in...

    stroker kits

    985.0xplorer, Never said they "didn't"...said it was "impressive". I know first hand what's involved, so that's why I said it. It's a lot of work. Also, I have more performance upgrades than you and barely made more Hp. Unless the Hp claim you made is an estimate at the flywheel. Without...

    stroker kits

    Sorry for the loss of your ride. Glad you came through unscathed. I'm very impressed that your mechanic yanked out your engine, tore it all down, installed a complete rotating assembly, and reinstalled the engine in less than 48hrs. He work for NASCAR? I also have a 347...+ TFS Street Heat...

    X-Box runs 13.45@ 101.3mph

    Hey Rob, I moved to S. Beach and haven't been to the track. I didn't go to the Dyno tune 'cause I broke a valve spring. I just got new springs to accomidate the larger cam. I may run it again in a week or two. It's going on Ebay next week. I want to see what kind of money it's worth. I...

    X-Box runs 13.45@ 101.3mph

    Thanks Guys. Alec, With the big cam I don't have much brakes at low RPM's, and under boost I have less. I don't know why you had them, but I don't. I'm putting on a elec evacuator from a Cobra to create constant vaccum and that should fix it. SaleenEXP, I PM'ed you. LowdPypes, What...

    X-Box runs 13.45@ 101.3mph

    Hello Everyone, Well I'm getting closer to my goal of the 12's. I ran 10 times at Morosso and most were around 13.5 @ 100. The truck is running great, I need to get some slicks and a different stall converter. The blower is putting out 9psi. I also can't brake torque the transmission because...

    My New Toy!

    Wow that's sick! I've gotta get down there and check that out. What are you going to do with the blower? How's the seats and cage comming? BTW, I finally got some of my truck issues taken care of. I bent a push rod at the track a few weeks back. I sorted that out and fabed a new...

    Most horsepower in an X?

    I've put down 340 to the ground on a dyno and run 13.85 @ 98mph at the track. That was running around 6-8 psi. I've since milled the pully down from 2.7" to 2.5" , swapped the E-cam for a TFS stage II, and the Track Heat intake for the "R" version. Took it to the track a few weeks ago...

    Went to the dyno today

    Mike, I feel your pain I spent around $10,000 in engine mods and wound up with only 340 RWHP. I thought I'd have over 400 for sure. Talk about disappointing, I've been sick about it ever since. Had I spent that money on a stang, it would have flown. I still need to sort out my excessive...

    Weight reduction

    My bad, I was thinking of XLT_66 who just ran 14.26.... So my question to you is.... If this isn't for a championship, to where the race will be decided by tenths........Why would you go through all the trouble to take out a half dozen items that will only add up to a few lbs of savings...
