Nice Jim... That's the only vehicle I've lost too.



Except the one I raced had an 18 pound pulley and about 750 to the wheels = raped me porno style.

They've been out for months, make 500 HP, and come in other colors too.

****, I gotta stop listening to the sales manager at work.... Well maybe if I lived in a town where I see a sweet car from time to time instead of once every 2 months, I would be more on top of the game here..... JK! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png

no offense or anything, but 9 times out of 10 sales people at car dealerships don't know anything about cars. i remember going to the dodge/mazda dealer in my town with a friend. he was looking to get a mazdaslow protege or a srt4. the guy tried telling me that the mazdaslow was faster then the srt4, but the srt4 was a twin turbo 4cyl.



Nice kill jim...those things are badass, there was one at etown running consistent 11.5s last time I went to the track

Dude trust me, I take no such offense. You should see some of the dealers at the place that I work at. If you ask any question that is in any way technically related, they instantly become retarted and ramble out some bs that almost always loses them a sale. Since that post about the SRT-10 I made, I've seen 4 at the Manheim Auto Auction (2 Red, 1 black, and 1 yellow).

99-2001 = 340 at the crank.

2002-present = 380 at the crank.



They are underrated by Ford, though.



My 340 HP (at the crank) Harley Truck dyno'd 332 rwhp and 406 rwtq when she

was bone stock.



As previously stated, the engine really takes well to mods,

without too much hoopla.
