That is insane on a stock block. about 200rwhp more than my stock block handled. I bet he goes even faster before it blows. that was @ only 16psi. Those turbo lightnings are going to be something else. Hopefully one of the trusted tuners will put together a relatively cheap, clean looking turbo swap for the trucks thats easier to get than whipples.

Congrats on setting the bar on a stock block Frank. Man that just kicks azz!!!

This just proves that these stock blocks have a lot more to offer than originally thought. It all comes down to how you go about it!!!

Not only did he run a 10 but he ran 128.62 mph today in the heat and about 300% humidity @ 16 lbs boost. Incredible

Frank is haulin ***** in that truck...Makes me want to get out and thrash on mine now, but I figure my shakedown runs need to be done with a good tune and a bit closer than 450+ miles from home.

Frank5L did a great job running 10.99. It really shows the potential of going with a Turbo.

Thanks Fellas. I couldnt have done it alone though...

Bubba (ITSOEZ) and the rest of the ARLOC crew was there to help me out and cheer me on. We did this Friday night after basically hotlapping.

I have some inspection to do and we'll see if she's gonna continue or if its about to get a built motor and alot more boost...

There is still so much left in it at this HP its unreal. 1.66 60'.

Thats the slowest 10second 60' on the "list"

THANKS to the video crews at LFest for helping me figure out my chassis issues. They might be solved by this coming weekend.

I WANT A 1.5 60' I know its got the HP and tire.

great times and numbers, I am not surprised, it all makes sense.

There are a couple of KB stock blocks pushing 500+ HP, a supercharger takes about half of your gain in parasitic loss. So 500RWHP minus 350(stock) is 150(gain), multiply the gain to factor parsitic loss of the supercharger by 2 and you have 300, add that to the stock numbers and you have 650 rwhp. That's just rough estimates but it makes sense. What did frank put down around 650 hp? dang that parasitic loss!
