[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I'd say put the 8.1L in a standard Cab with AWD and 6 speed manual.. THEN put the SS name on it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Ed,

I am sure that Mark will take you up on the race! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Better get the modifications going on the Jeep because Mark's wife never leaves anything he has stock for too long. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

Did you see the $10K spinning wheels? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif[/img]

It is my understanding that the trade that Mark used for the SS was a 360 Jeep SUV, A special performance package as I recall from 1998. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

WOW

There's all kinds of crazy stuff being made for the diesels now. If you haven't seen "Trucks" on tv, you need to watch the episode where he adds the propane injection and nitrous. They dyno'd some impressive rear wheel hp numbers.

Yup, my parents are always making me look bad...

I put a Turbo on my CR-V It went from 18.4[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img] to 15.8 (7 PSI)It was a big deal to me and my friends. Then my parents go buy a Silverado SS and run 14.9 Stock. Well guess I better add an intercooler and turn up the boost up soon...

Dyno VIDEO

Or Mark, you could just follow in your Dad's footsteps and go get you a Chevy.. Then you can run with the big dogs. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
