wow, single cab R/T's are hard to find, you got one hell of a deal on that. If I ever find an R/T under 5k i'm buying it, i dont care about what anyone says.

ORIGINAL: 00DakR/T

Thanks for the welcome.
As for the truck, the way I got it is one of those stories. Haha
Like I said, I work at a local dealership as a technician. When I started, our diesel/trans tech had the R/T that I have now. And to make a long boring story short, he got another job and left. However, before he did, his wife bought him a 06 Daytona Charger provided that he trade this truck in. So, for $4000 I got a 00 R/T with 72k with the M1 intake, Holley 52mm TB, 24 lb injectors, MOPAR headers, MSD 6BTMbox with MSD coil and MOPAR wires, full 3" single exhaust w/Dynomax and turndown, and of course, the Powerdyne S/C at 6lbs.
As far as my mods, I want to get about a .512 cam from KRC, MOPAR valve springs, about a 2800 stall and see how that feels.
As soon as I have some decent pics I'll post them on here, but here's the basic idea.......
NO!!!!!! Out of only 114 SC Bright White R/Ts you gota come up here and show me up!

lol, j/k thats a damn nice truck, 4k with little over 72k.. umm the damn supercharger was probably more then 4k.. damn good deal my sir, very damn good deal.

So.. you want to umm, well,, umm sell me those PPhs you got there son? KK thanks...

Maybe your kit will be alittle different than mine. I got the truck with the blower on it, so I am not sure how the kit is originally assembled. My only gripes are that it uses a 6 rib instead of a 7 rib pulley and I have yet to find a way to keep the belt from slipping at 4000+ Let me know if yours is any different

Haha I'm doin aight I reckon. Probably going to see if I can get alittle modding done during the winter since a friend of mine got a 99 Mustang a few weeks ago, and of course the sh**-talkin has already started. I've got to get my new tailgate and roll pan painted and installed to get my girlfriend off my back and then I'm probably going to throw in a stall and get a set of MT drag radials. I think that will be enough to handle his 'stang

Get a 7 rib pulley. Or change all your other pulleys to a 6 rib.
