Default new pb with my 4.8

went to the track friday and noticed my converter has some how tightened up , it wasnt letting me get into the chip and build boost off the line, so i lowered the two step so it could reach into it and opened my electric cut out for the first time ever, ended up setting a new pb in 1/8th et and mph and 1/4 et and mph with a 60 ft that was over a tenth slower then my old best. im in the lane dialed as a 10 flat( mistake on the track personals part) and sinc ei saw i redlighted i didnt bother lifting and just ran it out. not bad for a stock bottom junk yard 4.8

He's in a Z bud... Now a 150mph 4500 pound truck would be a little extreme, like 1200+ HP extreme lol.

LOL. So true I was zipping through and thought, Wow his truck has made some drastic changes. LOL. I was too big a hurry to compliment someone! I looked at the E.T. and never even looked at the MPH. Regardless congrats on the time OP you have a stout setup for sure.
