Oops...my misreading on the article:

The Stock time was for a stock R/T 5.9L. Disregard the HP calculation as
well.

Don't know if anyone has read this yet...but the April 2000 Motor Trend has
a very nice article on a 2000 Dakota R/T 5.9L build up test.

JBA Headers, K&N Gen-II (Mopar Sticker), B&B Tri-Flow Exhaust, Hotchkis
Suspension, etc.

Stock 1/4 mile Test Time: 16.0 @ 85.8
M/T Built 1/4 mile Test Time: 15.5 @ 89.6

No modified throttle body, computer, or rollers...Not bad for bolt-ons. (.5
second increase = approximately 20HP at the rear wheels.)
