 Subject: 3.9L 1/4 mile times?IP: Logged Message: First off, thanks everyone for the help getting me started. I have a '00 Dakota Sport 3.9 regular cab with a 5spd. Ive had a best 1/4 mile time of 16.71 or so with the average time around 16.97 at the Rockingham Dragway. Was the clock off or is anyone elses bone stock V-6 Dak running times around mine? I would like to know. Tyler '00 Dakota Sport 3.9L, 5spd, and clear corner lights |

IP: Logged Message: Just remember when you're comparing the times of the Gen-II and Gen-III Dakota's...as stated in another thread, the Gen-II Dakota's are faster than the Gen-III's due to the lighter weight of the Gen-II's. Wonder what i'd run with normal street tires instead of the 32" BFG A/T's..... ;) Bernd D. Ratsch 1997 Dodge Dakota SLT Supercharged w/Nitrous |
| Daniel D Unregistered 1/18/2001 15:18:15 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: My 95 X-Cab Auto V6 ran a best of 17.182 at 79, with a drop in K&N and dual glasspacks. I have since added Open Element K&N, Flowmaster dumped, V8 TB, 180 T'stat, MSD Blaster Coil, Accel 8mm wires, Autolite 3923, Bed Cover, Roll Pan. With the current mods i'm hopin for a 16.7-16.9. Any ideas or suggestions of what it'll run or what i can do to get more HP without spending alot of money? |
| Bernd GenIII 1/18/2001 17:02:55 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: Well, changing to the newer parts should put you at high 16's but the bed cover (added weight) may offset this. (Added weight = slower e/t's.) Bernd D. Ratsch 1997 Dodge Dakota SLT Supercharged w/Nitrous |
| Daniel D Unregistered 1/18/2001 18:06:09 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: It's a soft bed cover. i dunno how much it weighs but i don't think it's a whole lot. the bed cover is supposed to improve mph. i'm going to find out March 3 at the DML meet here in Louisiana |
| Bernd GenIII 1/18/2001 21:25:43 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: In that case, the weight from the soft cover might not even effect the outcome. (Thought you had a hard cover on it.) Bernd D. Ratsch 1997 Dodge Dakota SLT Supercharged w/Nitrous |

IP: Logged Message: gee what a bunch of stones i figured you guys could hit the 14's outta the box. what would it take to get you going that fast ? more nos or an older 360 with proven performance. see you at the track, perhaps in the rearview. anyway keep building. |

| Bernd GenIII 1/24/2001 08:31:15 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: Ok...wanna play it that way eh? Ok, take a Lightning (Bone Stock Factory Engine) and compare it to an R/T (5.9L). Mid 13's vs. high 14's (sometimes low 15's). Yeah, the "L" is Supercharged, but it's also 300lbs heavier. You're comparing apples to oranges. The thread was 3.9L 1/4 mile times. Bernd D.

| Bernd GenIII 1/26/2001 09:03:12 | RE: 3.9L 1/4 mile times? IP: Logged Message: Ok...so you're actually one of the very few who doesn't know what a Ford Lightning is? It's an F-150 SVT Package (Supercharged 5.4L OHC V8). Factory 1/4 mile times are anywhere from 13.8 - 14.1. With only about $600 in mods, they can easily hit 13.3 - 13.5 in the 1/4. Bernd D.
