Yeah man, I just got tired of the down time and wanting to go faster . There is no better mod than shaving almost 3000lbs off. Having a reliable dd is more important than a fast truck, plus the Dart will be waaaay faster.
Yeah I feel the same way....I might just put a 75-100 shot at most but any plans for FI or upgraded internals isn't gonna happen to me after watching you in particular have all these issues with the tranny holding up and no bullet proof options. I've got plans for a 10 second car in the spring...just kinda gonna step back to a ford to do it. But in Texas a truck is a must and mine won't be going any where either.
This is why I gave up on my truck.. It was NEVER gonna be fast like I wanted it to be. So I went and got myself a way lighter car, the 5.0. Best trade off ever.
Thanks man. I know what you mean, I'm defiantly keeping the truck though. Can't wait to get this thing done and to the track(going to be 6 months or so) just depends on finding an eagle hemi to drop into my tuck at a reasonable price.
great choice on the Dart, I (had) 2 Road Runners...68 and 71....shouldnt have sold them.....sad to see the Crew slowing down ,but totally understand the idea of the car, good luck and I know you will keep us posted. It was the Fastest and best Crew To date for me so far.......:rck: ,thanks for taking us for a sweet ride
I got that going on also. I was all about making my truck a rocket then decided a classic muscle car is way more fun to make fast. My 68' Mustang Restomod is my side project.
Damn man, was talking to fasthemiram05 today and he told me about this.....can't believe you are going back to stock. Sucks we won't get to see the truck in the 11s
to ran a NAG1 transmission in a Ram you are talking about some serious modifications electrical wise. Not to mention all the fun you will have with getting the PCM to play nice.
yes but not too bad ...got 2 buddies running them in there J/Ks right now...and another going into a chally......its a sweet set up only one is running the viking...he needs it.....
"Best way to go for a NAG1 swap is to find a wrecked GCSRT8, and start swapping every module over so the truck itself turns into a GCSRT8 electronically. then you just work with it like the jeep." <<<Found that little excerpt on LXForums when an LX member asked about swapping a NAG1 into his ram.
sorry to see the truck go but the Dart looks like another great project.
