search for a guy named parish. he has a reg. cab short bed chevy that runs low 11's on the factory LT street tires. it is a 4wd with a 406 cu. in. motor with off the shelf chevy heads (not sure which ones) and a large turbo. that is one sweet truck. it look completely stock except for under the hood.
nitrous is the cheapest up front, but you do have to refill the bottle a lot. if you do go with notrous, find a progressive controller, it will allow your motor to take a larger short because it is much easier on the motor.
nitrous express makes one, and so does
