I'm telling you his power is correct...first hand!

ET's are probably higher because of the 35's, and I think RJ's truck is just shy of 7500lbs...correct me if I'm wrong Rowland! BTW, theres no bottle on there either, just good ole #2!!

Redstreak,
That's what I thought you were getting at... just wanted to be sure
Only been to track once since twins installed.
-Truck weighed 7600 lbs that day (work configuration).
-104* OAT
-15-20 KT headwind
-H2O/Meth was washer fluid
-315 tires put me at 2650 rpm through the trap.

Was a test & tune day. Found out what I wanted to know.
a-I can get to mid or low 12's on a good day.
b-Twins make big difference off the line (did a 1.75, 60 ft).

Just been to busy to race again. And I disagree about the BD twins. They handle it fine, IMO.

Sounds good. A dyno is merely a tuning device. Put it on the track or hook it to a sled and let's see how the power gets to the ground. People can talk numbers all they want to - don't mean a thing. As far as the post - my tranny DTT 48re VB w/a single disc converter and no breaks is 2 years. 1 year has been well over the 600rwhp mark. 500hp on a stock tranny?? No way - truck must not move from its parking spot.

He has an aftermarket TQ. Tyler is putting down well over 400 with just a VB (intended for a lot less than that) and John Rodriguez was putting down some pretty serious numbers before his stocker gave it up...

Gunracer...is that 500hp stock tranny in the little truck?? I assume you're turning some higher RPM with it, which would also help it live. Also the light truck can't hurt!

When you stock, you mean completly (minus the convertor, of course) or have you done some VB mods and the internals are stock??

Yeah, the auto is in the little one. That truck can't weigh much.
