first off, you dont stand a chance. you will be lucky if the truck runs high 15's. but if you would like to borrow my grand national and give him an a$$ woppin that would be ok. even though it is a truck they dont hook as well as a car. light in the rear. .but after a few mods and some suspension work it will haul a$$

You can do many mods to your truck to squeeze out some more horsepower. They have all been talked about before, so feel free to use the search function and see all the possibilities. Welcome to the forum!
