Well I didn't see any restrictions on what kind of vehicle or fuel type we could post but here you go....

So we bought a van


1989 B350 1 ton
9.25 HD rear axle :laughing:
5.9 V8
727 TF



Was a nice van for 350 bucks....

But fawk that we can take it to truck pulls next weekend!

Need to trim the fenders for the 35's
(dont use a torch, the insulation inbetween the panels lights on fire) :smokin:


Took it on down to the shop to get some work done by some of our sponsors



Borrowed a new set of 4.88's

Then a vendor supplied the Detroit Locker...................Lincoln chipped in too



Hellwig kicked down with a leaf spring eliminator kit!



Bell Tech lowering division wanted in on the action too



Magnaflow heard about the build up also. Free cat delete kit!!!



We got hooked up!

A-Team'd out! :mr-t:

Then we threw 3 Eaton Fuller transmissions in the back



Started test runs on the street but sheared the stock engine mounts apart



So 4 or 5 blocks of fire wood and a ratchet strap from Home Depot fixed that....(pics later)

Got some brighter red



Those were some nice black chrome rims



Got some touch up after this

 

This should help



It made it maybe a third of the way? I was only planning on pulling the sled 5 feet. Got the entire crowd cheering when I pulled on the track, then after it blew, got a standing ovation! More people cheered(or laughed) for us than the Big Bad Dodge pull truck. Just awesome. Friends got video but I'll have to round it up. And the 150-300 shot of nitrous caused a nice explosion and fire.


P.s. They didnt even tech anyone this year, you could have had a rocket in the back window and it would have been let thru.

Next year we're building a wheel stander for the crowd


So the massive weight over the rear end blew through the trex :homer:



Awaiting our turn :laughing:



Aftermath from the nitrous pop and fire on the track

Blowing it up in the pits



Fun starts around 2:05

 

Hahaha that's awesome. The crowd when it blew was priceless.

 

that looks like WAY too much fun

 

Nice, lighten the front and put a stick in it

 

should of taken it a step farther with a full mr T get up!!!! haha looked like fun

 

haha, that looks like a crap load of fun

 

I must admit that I had never even thought of this. I am a bit jealous that I don't have one. Awesome job, keep up the good work, great project. You get thumbs up from me.

 

That is hilarious stuff! Now what you going to do with that van?
