Bingo!

I know they'd need to be longer but do you think you could do something?

Its not a canned tune its a custom tune so thats why we are probably making the power. We are out of pump and doing the RAFA twin pump setup that we did on Rafa26's truck, it'll handle 700 RWHP.

JimIII[/QUOTE]

by saying you are out of pump, does that mean that the factory pump cant keep up or your not using pump gas. sorry im on the slow side. and does the saleen have the same internals has the regular 5.4 in the rest of the ford trucks.

Damn those pics at Raceway Park sure bring back good memories. I really miss Jersey sometimes, but not the snow

the fuel pump itself is maxxed no more to give, thats why we are making our twin pump setup for it.

That's a good 60' for that truck.

Sticky tires and traction bars your only mods for traction? No tranny mods?

Any dynographs?

I have been considering switching over to a twin screw blower. When I compare charts, the power of my vortech is equal to or above when it comes to the rpm band I would be racing in. To get into that I had been planning on getting a small baby stall, 2600 rpm, to get a better launch off the line. I tow with the truck though so that worrys me.

Yea we were impressed, the BFGoodrich 23 " tires get really sticky.

Ill get some dyno graphs, we have a few

I think your about right but the twin screw probably would be alittle more responsive, At the track a convertor would really help you out.

Awesome power out of that thing! I can't wait to get my new tune whenever I can afford it. Right now I'm still running the stock tune and it is doing VERY well. I ran 2.04 60 ft times last time I went to the track and I couldn't put it to the floor off the line or it would spin. I haven't tried a 4 wheel drive launch at the strip yet but it will PLANT you in the seat 0-30. Those tires must be really sticky to not want to break loose with the stock setup. I haven't had any problem getting the 22's to roll over.

That's a good question. They are exactly what i am looking for, looks like the HD grill without the emblem.

Are these grilles available for sale ? If so, how much ?
