Started last year with.....

CenterForce clutch
Viper master and slave cylinders
Lightweight flywheel (You can skip that)
Belanager coated long tube headers
Catless mid pipes
Magnaflow cat back
Pace-Edwards Jackrabbit cover
Bedrug
Approx total that year 5K. All work done by me.

This year
B&M Shifter
Stripes (that added a good 10HP)
Plated wheels
New rubber (Generals UHPs)
SC kit, which indluded
Roe SC @ 6psi
48lb injectors
VEC 3 programmer with preprogrammed cards based on my mods
Meth injection
Bosch Platinum plugs (cooler spark required with FI)
8.5MM MSD wires
172 degree T-Stat
Approx cost this year 11K. I did everything but the stripes. I can do paint work but I no longer have a garage capable of it, to much stuff stored in there.


I am done with it, but the next step would be tear it down, replace the pistons, push rods, heads, maybe stroke it to a 522. Then increase boost to 10-12psi.

 

That would be one mean truck, too bad you're ditching it. Is your new project you wan tto start atleast going to have a big motor or forced induction or anything?

 

Do not need to. It will be about a 2200-2300 pound car. A 400HP V8 will do just fine.

 

If you stroke your srt and up the boost 4-6psi what are you looking at as far as HP goes 750 or so? And the project you are talking about can best be described as a Lotus Elise with a V8

 

That car will move out pretty well. Post some pics or specs on it when you get what you are building or the plans ironed out. Even if it is no Dodge I would love to see the new project.

 

I'd like to see that also.

Stripes, heh?

Who knew?

Well, I'm going to paint my truck so that it looks like a zebra.

It will be the ultimate two tone paint job. ;-)
