I built this because I had a hard time finding any musclecars in good shape (at least that I could afford). I took so much grief from all my friends that I decided to actually try to make it fast just to prove em wrong. Its turned out to be a truly awesome truck that I do drive on the street regularly and will still lay it down at the track. One of these days I hopefully will finish the body and maybe it will look the part. It ran consistent 10.68-10.74 on the old motor with a box stock set of Dart Pro 1 Heads and a 200 shot of nitrous. I am expecting a lot more out of it with the new bigger cam, full race porting of the heads and the addition of the procharger running 10 PSI. It damn sure feels faster!

Nice truck man. I plan on building up an old Chevy or GMC 4x4 once I save up the money. 383 seems to be the way to go. Those are some sick 1/4 mile times. Good luck with the new buildup.
