How hard is it to make a syclone run low 7's in the 8th. Looking at buying one just wondering how difficult they are to maintain and make run fast
Thanks

Truckless. For now.
Re: 8 th mile question
have you used the search feature at all? there's lots of topics on cost/ease of maintaining one of these trucks. as for low 7's? anything is possible with time and ton's of $$$.
but my best advice, if you want one of these trucks, pick one or the other: fast or reliable. you can't have both....unless of course you have unlimited funds.

:roll: tuning and a smart driver is all that you need for reliablety (sp?). I
have had my daily driver (never stranded) for four years.IMO $2500 should take you from stock to 7's

just to be clear, my truck is a daily driver as well. 2 years and never stranded. but a lot of times people post to this board want a truck, but don't want to put any effort into it. they just want to buy something that's fast out of the box and that's it. when little stuff goes wrong, or it doesn't run up to par, it's sold again or abused without the owner knowing they are abusing it with it being in low tune.
i apologize for lack of sleep clouding my post. it's just nice to see those that are really interested in owning/perserving these trucks, and can't be turned away from them easily. it's a way to weed out those that would abuse their truck. if everyone that posted "i want a reliable fast syty" bought one, i'm sure there would be far fewer trucks left on the roads.
and we all know, once mods start, it's very hard to stop. you yourself said "usually with a built tranny, engine and quite a big turbo."
oh well, i'm feeling under the weather so i'll quit while i can still see out of my hole.
to kidreynolds, if you really want one, they can be great trucks and good luck in your search. now is a good time to buy one. there are a lot of super nice, clean trucks for sale right now.
