I will keep them at 22psi or so. Just wondering how good of traction I will have with the 3400 stall on these dr's? Good street traction? Good track traction? Little bit of spin?

i have Nitto 555's 315/35's with a Vig 3600 and a pretty much stock LT1 and i cut 1.7 60' and 1.6 60' on spray...i run mine at 15-16psi on the track and 25 on the street...

Are yours dr's?

How fast was your et at that 60 and what kind of gear do you have and other mods.

Anybody else think it will hook?

It may or may not hook. If the track prep is good, and you learn how to get your car to squat, then yes it will dead hook likely putting in the high 1.6x or low 1.7x range. Sometimes my car with a 3200 would hook, other times it wouldn't. It came down to bringing the converter up to the right rpm, and applying gas and letting off the brake just right for the car to squat in the rear. Get it wrong and they go up in smoke. I never did quite figure out exactly what I was doing right or wrong but it was fun anyways.

I think they will your first year. The longer you use them the harder the compound gets and the harder it is to hook. But that's my opinion.

I'm on my 3rd year with mine, they don't hook for ****. First year they dead hooked with an SS3600. Upgraded to the SS4000, still did ok. But now they are a lot older and I added a cam...lots of spinning.

If i ordered a fresh set I bet they would do ok.

In my experience with them around 400rwhp and a 4400 TCI with 3.73 gearing they would dead hook with decent prep after a pretty long burnout (get them hot enough so smoke billows from the wheelwells, and start the burnout in 1 and upshift to 2 to keep your wheel speed up) and I saw 1.6-1.7 60s pretty consistently

I find it better to start the burnout in 2nd as to not subject the trans to the undue punishment.

Are you an m6? My trans in my car won't start in 2 if you are at a dead stop. I would love to be able to begin mine in 2 because I know that has to be rough on my trans..

As far as hooking.. Yes. I believe you will. I have had no problems with mine so far and I'm running a decent sized cam and 4k stall.

Well what trans do you have? i was referring to a 4l60e, stock set-up. When you drop it in 2, it starts and ends in 2nd gear only. No shifts take place. I stick it in low, roll my tires slowly through the water, up to second, do a burnout, up to D for the 1320 feet in front of me.

I have a 3600 and Nitto 275 DRs and I cut 1.42s all day. I put mine to 15lbs and do a 5-7sec burnout.

I find this hard to believe unless you have a massive amount of suspension. On a stock car with stall and no suspension they will only hook good on a well preped track.

I agree, time slip and list of mods would be nice to see.

Full adjustable suspension, forger motor with HCI, built 4l60 and built 10 bolt. Have not kept any time slips or been back to the track since last Spring.

Converter has a ton to do with a 1.42 60' as well. The trans I was referring to earlier was a 4l60e. To my knowledge the stock unit does not start in 2nd gear when you put it in 2, it starts in 1st. You're probably not feeling the shift due to converter slip. To my knowledge there is not an aftermarket shift kit that let's you start in 2nd - only a full manual conversion would allow you to do that. I didn't mean start in 2nd anyway, I meant put the shifter in 1 and bump it up to 2 after the tires start to spin and keep it in 2nd for the burnout to keep the wheel speed up to avoid long inconsistent burnouts

Thanks for all the comments. I am probably going to be getting some lca's and lca relocation brackets and mayble a cuple other things to help me hook also
