That is surprising, put NOS in it :)
 






those are some pretty good times for what youve done to it.
 






that's better than my times. my dad just got a g-tech/pro i ran 1/4 in 17.9 @ 79 mph but it also stated that i had 173 hp. all i done is put a flowmaster with dual outs on it.

i cant wait to get 15 times.
 






that's good for an X. mine would probably run 21's in the 1/4 mile. I'm not too worried about speed with my x because i have a Trans Am that runs low 13's. The only thing I've done to my x is an intake. I want to get an exhaust, but i want it "VERY" quite...
 






how much HP do you think it is making the x is 4230 lb with me in it
 






15's

Whats up I did that exact time , 15.5 with the exact same mods, with the 4.10 rear and SOHC motor. Well done!
 






:eek: Wow didn't know the Xs could be in the mid 15s that easily. The SOHC is a very under-rated motor ;) I need to take my X to the track. I am hoping low 16s with stock tires/engine. Pretty quick for an almost 5000 pound truck :D

Assuming you are around 150 lbs. and assuming a 20% drivetrain loss, you should be making about 201.3 RWHP. Not bad ;)
