From The Strange, Weird And Bizarre Files - A Top Fuel Silverado

[twostep]

These 'pioneers' - LOL - take a wrecked, bone stock 5.3 Silverado and treat it to an ever-increasing dose of nitro. 90 percent produced about a 50 percent power/tq increase but 100 percent proved to be too much thanks to massive detonation. But no parts fell off - or out. Enjoy !

Probably because of the Cleveland heads. Oh, yes it did; just ask any Ford guy on here.
