duramax vs 8.1L Big block
 

A guy i work with has a 02 2500hd extended cab 4wd w/ 3.73 rear ALL STOCK and swears he can leave me towing or racing. My truck is a 03 4wd reg cab w/3.73 rear 4" exhaust K&N intake and a Hypertech 90hp programmer! He keeps wanting to race for pink slips what do you think?

well I wouldn't do it cause I don't know, I can't afford too lose my truck, if you had EFI Live or just a PPE i'd try it, but for pinks, hell no, just wager like $100 or something that way it sucks for one of ya but you're not out of a truck:c:

yeah I cant afford to loose my truck ether. I have tried like hell to try to race him for fun, or money. but he wont. it slmost made me think he had NOS or something. but i poped his hood, and looked under the truck and it is all stock, he is just real proud of his gasser

tell him that the only reason he wants to race for titles is cuz no one actually does that he is scared

sounds like he's a few marbles short of a full jar, I sure wouldn't do it, i honestly think if you can hook up you'd smoke him, especially with a little boosted launch, but lets say something breaks or whatever, then you're out a truck and yours is more valuable in my opinion than hsi anyway just because of the diesel:U:

Just tell him if he really wants to race put up 100.00 or shut up. To many things could happen that might change the out come, plus I really wouldn't want to take a truck from some one who can't afford it.

i think on top end he would get me bc my truck cutts off at 98ish

so does his if it's completely stock and if he said it goes faster than 98ish he's full of it cause that's stock governor on chevy's

Those 8.1's can move. Esspecially if he has a good programmer on it. GM pulls ALOT of power out of the tune from the factory. I would be careful!

lookin under the hood wount show nothin if there is a programmer on that gasser but it is your truck so its your call id run him for braggen rights and money or a nice dinner for the family winners choice.
