Titan vs. 99 Dodge 5.9 r/t

mbjkiller · 03-30-2006, 11:53 PM

So my friend just bought a red dodge 5.9 r/t. Pretty cool truck, it has a posi so he does nice burnout and stuff. We decided to give it a run, we both thought that it would be a pretty close run. So heres the story, we did a couple runs, most of the were from a roll. We raced at a 10mph roll and i pull him about 2-3 feet until we hit around 75mph, then he starts to slowly pull on me. Racing to top end, he has a better chance of winning, 0-60 i win

, have you guys had any 5.9 r/t encounters?

Nice Kill, I still like the 5.9's. It's just a mopar 360, it's a 4" bore with a 3.58" stroke. They are excellent torque motors when set up properly with the right cam.
It's funny that some of my friends are beating up on the new Hemi guys with thier modified 5.9's.

I recently raced a 2001 Dodge Ram Sport. I know it had the 5.9, but I'm not sure if there's a difference between that and the R/T??

Anyway, here's more reading on about my 'run-in'!
