So what all have you done to your truck, and who does all of your work? What did the monster box set you back? Who installed it. I have been scared to take my truck anywhere around here cause I didn't know who to get to work on it that was trust worthy. I did everything on my own except for the 4 pounder and JDM did that at FFW 1 1/2 yrs ago.
My mods are in my sig and I did all the work on my truck. The only thing I didn't do is tune it. I leave that up to Sal and Mike. I would also have Mike at DynoTex do any major work that I can't tackle in my driveway. I know how you feel about finding someone to work on your truck. Nathan and I have gone through so many shops in the past and I feel that I have finally found one that I can trust. So, if my motor ever goes Mike will get my business.

Yeah, it's not slow.

My Dad and I installed the Monter Box the first time around. But, we misdecked the converter and the truck only ran for about 1200 miles. The second time I had a shop which I will no longer recommend do it. Not because they did me wrong, but because they did Nathan wrong.

The videos came out pretty good man! Wait until you see the video I got from inside the truck. They are bad ***! I think you and Clint left before my last race. I ran an f-body with heads, cams, and exhaust. I barely beat him! It was an awesome race and the video came out great.
