Stock 4x4 QC 5.9s Ive seen running mid 17s, if you got your running 14s thats pretty good congrats! When I started racing my Indy back in July 96, trucks were few n far between. Lot more trucks racing now.

Dak was nice, Mr Durango needs to learn how to drive lol. 500hp is about 375rwhp on a dynojet btw.

Id pass on the 426, less chance it will last as long as a 408 or make as much hp.
The 426 you have to notch the bottom of the cylinders a fair bit compared to the 408 which reduces the blocks strength. They have much sharper rod angle, have to use shorter skirted pistons, that come too far out of the hole. Intake manifold and heads especially are way too small to utilize the ci's.

I think this is my favorite vid, as far as racing a 3/4 4x4 Ram. I know its a cummins but still one helluva nice truck.

yeah thats true, I would imagine it would be smarter to drop some extra weight and throw in a larger block(390?) then stroke that out to a 426. Or just grab a big block and be done with it.

In my opinion its alot cooler when a 4x4 Ram with 35's and 8" of lift runs a 13-14 sec than a 2wd draggin the ground runs a 11-12 sec. quarter mile.
