Budget Beater!

Before I was able to break the tires loose at about 80 and now it will only do it at 45 or so. Definately helped. I will be taking it to the track tonight and see how well it performs! Let's see if she can do 11s now!!

Tonight??? I wish you luck on getting those 11 second runs!

At the same time, I don't want you to beat me to the 11's.

My next outing is "street legal" race night next friday so I'll be running street tires.... maybe someone will shoot a video of the tire smoke!!!
 
Cool thread....what all has been done to the pump itself? What timing did you arrive at?? Any total dollar figures after the trans?
 
11.964 @ 117.31mph!!!!! Tires were still fighting for traction but I made 11s.

Only thing done to the little 160 pump is 4k gsk, 191 dv, afc mods, rack plug,21*

Total dollar figures including the price of the truck which was 3200 is around $11,000

Congrats on getting into the 11's!!!! How much pressure were you running in your slicks? Did you put any preload on the caltracs or were they setup just touching the top of the leaf?

Post up the rest of your split times, I want to see your 60' 330', 1/8th MPH, etc.

Once again, congratulations.

Okay everyone...... HUGE UPDATE for the Budget Beater! Diesel Thunder was in Spokane, WA today and was a great success. The night before a buddy from Diesel Power Products and I decided to slap on a healthy 150hp+ shot of nitrous on the Beater for ****s and giggles. Dyno didnt load and only pulled 531hp on fuel but managed a 692hp run with a fresh bottle of nitrous. Next it was time to hit the track with my new found power adder and see what she could do. The Beater suprised the hell out of me and everyone else there tonight! New best time for the Budget Beater is a 10.936 @ 122.26 mph! Also when i ran out of nitrous for the night i ran a new best fuel only run tonight too. 11.872 @ 117 mph.
