Friend of mine has a 66 coronet the whole bottom of the motor is completly stock and has never even been rebuilt, he beats on it constantly. I would love to see a 1966 chevy run as good as that dodge motor. :-)

Not impressed... Ive had my truck since 1996, the only thing Ive replaced on it has been a speed sensor and a radiator. Sounds like a good record to me. Making 330 HP at the wheels with 127,000 miles, of course SCed, but with only bolt ons... running 13.8@99 with a 4x4... which will soon be a lowered 400+ HP at the wheels Harley F150, Lightning, SSR, DSM, Mustang, Camaro EATING MONSTER. I expect a very low 12, and high 11 on nitrous. Best part about it will be the originality of it, not many dakotas, not to mention 2nd gens running that on the street. THERE WILL ALWAYS be someone faster, all ready is... but I love being original, and unexpected.

-The cab and bed will not be sitting on the 4wd frame much longer, currently in the process of refinishing a 2wd frame.

F bodies are a dime a dozen, hell, 2 dozen. Not saying they arent fast, my freinds runs 12.9 on just motor and street tires... 12.2@118 I think is his best on a 100 shot. They are carzy motors, no doubt... but there are just so many of them, you just end up looking at the same thing all the time. Only thing that sets them apart is the paint if they have anything done. Another freind has a 97 I think TA, he cant touch me, from a stop, or a roll. That car does have 130K on it, but mine has 127K. What was the last year of the LT1, thats his year. It is an auto, so is mine. What does yours run anyway, whats done to it?

I think your MPH is a little slow for all that work. Im sure I can get you a pic of my buddies timeslip if you want, but 109 just seems slow for all that you have into it. Even the 12.4 isnt what I would expect. The the guy with the newer TA ran 12.2@118 on street tires with a 100 shot and a air lid, THATS IT. He has yet to run with the drag rad. at the track yet but the newer gtech thing he has was saying 11.9-11.8 at whatever MPH it was I dont remember. You might want to look into getting it tuned, seems like you are lacking real bad.

Oh, and as far as there being a lot of daks on the road, thats fine. Im talking about the ones that are actually modded to race and be fast etc... not the ones that are grocery getters and work trucks... there IS a difference. You dont have to get all pissy about it.

Next to go is the fuel injectors, map sensor, and if you wait too long on the missing, the computer unit. That's what happened to my Dodge Dakota 93 at around that mileage. v-8 injectors = pretty close to a grand!

Thats funny, because the 30 lb FMS injectors on KRC performance are only $255.00 for a set of 8. And those are good injectors. Where the hell are you shopping.

Dodge outlasting a Chevy motor lol you guys don't know crap the SBC is the best selling motor of all time. I wonder why you find them in every make/model Ford Dodge Jeep and so on. I like Dodge but even I know who makes the best motors.

just because it's it's cheap and plentiful doesn't necessarily make it the best now does it? it's the easy way out. any monkey can rebuild an SBC or SBF for performance.
