RE: throttle body
Why isn't it anyone's business if he'sbragging upsuch great times? That just doesn't make sense at all.
I also would like to see slips. Not so much because I'm calling him a liar, I just want to see what kind of 60's and mph a 14.2 second 4900 lb dakota is putting out.
When I broke the SOHC neonall motor record I had slips on hand because I know there would be interested parties that would want to see 'em. If your going to brag it up, back it up!
FYI- It takes 355 HP crankto get a 4900 lb vehicle to achieve a 14.2 in the 1/4 mile. This is 120 hp over stock. Is there 100 shot involved thatwe missed? [&:]

RE: throttle body
That's his business. I want to see what he has too, but I don't want to see what he has cuz I don't believe him. ONce I get my stuff in, I'm going to try and get my dyno done too.
My point is is that people on this site are way too bored and way too worried about other people. I'm surprised that nobody called me out and said they want to see my timeslip for my 16.9. That's how pissy people are beginning to be. That's just my opinion.

RE: throttle body
Well for one, I believe him, but like I think Amanda said in one of her Moderator section topics, people don't call people out, when the numbers seem believeable.. like, if I said my stock Neon SXT I had a few years ran 17.5 people would believe me, HOWEVER, if I said it ran like a 14.9 people would call BS, and ask for proof.
Again, I believe him, I want to see the dyno graphs at least. See how the curves look and everything, I've always been a fan of dyno sheets.

RE: throttle body
why is it so hard to believe. you run 15.88 with a 4x4, with an exhaust, rear end gears and intake. I know for a fact that cams lowered my mustangs runs by over a second...
BTW my software projection has a 4700lb vehicle needing 250 at the wheels and 269 tq... to run 14 flat.
ratt racing and performance... "bench racing" software.
Hp, is nothing with out tq. 1000hp is nothing if it only has 50 lb/ft of tq.

Also HP is a function of Torque, power is power. 355 hp @ the crank isa rough number of whatit takes to move a3rd gen dakotathrough the 1/4 in 14.2 seconds. Point being a 4.7 with stock gearing a jet chip that probably is only making the truck run rich, and cams WILL NOT give the 4.7 an extra 120 HP at the flywheel. This is plain and simple common sense. You can tell who on this site actually hits the track and who does not.
RE: throttle body
First off, I am not taking sides. I would, however, like to see the slip. Also, why superdak05, did you opt for the 70mm throttle body over the recommended 68.5mm? The reason I ask is because in the editorial done by "Fastman" he states that the 68.5 would be more than suffecient to handle a blower. I would like to hear some opinions.

RE: throttle body
dont get mad because people use actual software and bench race to check your "theory" there is more done than a chip and cams. I am saying, you have gears and exhaust. he has more performance mods than you. it is "logical, or common sense" to assume he runs faster.
you dont know what cams will do, you have not done them. you dont know what he has done. So how do you know what he will run? for you to call someone out without even doing the research and just to rely on your knowledge of motors is plain mean. I am not saying his runs are what they are, I dont care what he runs to tell you the truth. But for you to say it isn't possible without doing the appropriate research is what got to me. its the principal of the thing.
you say your not calling him a liar, so what are you saying?
