Oh...I think I will stop abusing my truck. $2,600.00 is a bit too much. That's a bit out of my range.

Thanks for the response, D Wiggs

stock03,

You don't need a 3850 unless your are going to be HARD on your truck with big mods...

A good quality single disk from SBC will do well for 99% of the guys out there.

Gypsyman is runnin 600+ on a single disk. I'm pretty sure lmills is too. I might be wrong tho.

Singles are around a thousand I think...

Ok, that isn't too bad. I don't think I'll ever be much over 400hp. How much HP do you think I'll make with a VA and ts ramifier?

Quite a bit. I know a guy with a Stock 2005 other than those exact two boxes. It even has a stock turbo and it holds its own at the local tractor pulls. They pyro climbs faster than the tach tho...seriously. It's a powerful stack, I just think a guy needs some timing to go along with it.

Your Welcome and Luken is right. I went with the 3850 becaus eI need my truck to be "bulletproof" at what I hope will end up around 1000hp!

1,000 hp would be amazing! And it will more than likely still be a daily driver and get good fuel mileage.

I see why you need a high end clutch like that. No reason to go cheap with all that power.

Hopefully my stock will last for awhile!

Gypsyman is very careful about how he gets into the throttle on his single.

You can get a single for less than a grand if you shop around.
