Depends on if you count this as a street truck. Its still 6300lbs. Runs 11. 82.

there is a custom short box red one that was right around 11. 5 and holds the quickest powerstroke record

if my truck was 6000 lbs i would be running around 10. 80 or so--------that thing is not a street truck... ... ... ... :-laf :-laf :-laf

It can be done TJ, we run against the red short box truckthat someone mentioned. It does run 11. 50's, not sure if it is considered a street truck or not, it is shortened, 2wd, 4 linked and runs big slicks, but it runs good. I don't think the average guy will have much luck making it happen though, I'm pretty sure it takes extensive work to the high pressure fuel system, plus the other stuff mentioned above. Guy name Gene (Weweld) who runs the truck, owned by somebody else named Brian I believe. There is a lot of info on it at SoCaps.com.

I think the basis behind the question is how realistic is it to have a street driven 6. 0L build enough power to make an 11 sec pass? I'm feeling trailer queen only on this my self. Anyone?

I saw him at High desert. I am talking about a full body daily driver.

What a idiot I found out today the guy has 38's on his truck.

 

[Diesel Nut]

well, lets see . . . .

38's + powerstoke = 21sec truck.



So, he's only off by one or two seconds(ish)!!



Maybe he's got that new 400 shot of nos to get her going!! :-laf

 

[TGibbs]

He probably has 600 horsepower with just a chip to huh :-laf ? To bad it isnt as easy as adding up the chip with the horsepower from the factory.

It is a good thing he can't get to the 11's , cuase I don't think it would be a good thing to do with 38" tires
