Impressive. I knew it would be coming, just wasn't expecting anything quite so quick. Jeff you truly are one of the great ambassadors of this sport.

Actually now that you mention it, I have seen pics of a a Red 86 fleetside on the net before, and it was the 4.3 V6 version! The 350 wouldn't be a bad combo, same engine combo as the late 70's car engines, Like Jack and Terry's cars.

Chris, I thought I remembered a 4.3 truck running too but I couldn't find it in the guide. I thought that Chris Hill or maybe someone else ran one a while back.

It's time to add to this thread about the 1986 Chevy truck combo. Actually, the timing couldn't be better to resurrect this thread. Check out what combo holds the #1 Qualifier spot in Brainerd for this weekend's National Event! U/SA 5454 Richard Muhlenhardt, Watertown MN, '86 GMC P/U 13.624 (14.85 Index) -1.226 classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=42545(By the way, the 10.21 comment in the thread is a joke!)

Here's what a fully prepped one of these trucks can do! Only #1 Qualifier at the biggest, toughest, most prestigious drag race on the planet; the US Nationals in Indy!
1 7784 U/SA Paul Wong, Las Vegas NV, '86 C-10 13.300 14.85 -1.550
As long as runs like this don't hammer the horsepower factor into the Twilight Zone, this combo is one competitive package!

They dinged this combo 16hp after indy Certainly expected after the amount under that this combo ran there. That just changes it from a "KILLER" combo to a "Killer" combo.....still pretty impressive!
