Here is a video with the heads and cam and headers on it.... Like the video says, tune isnt 100% yet and its launching really sluggishly. Not coming on hard till about 30 ft out, would got 11.30s easy if the 60' was there.

Congrats but that launch is ugly.. get a drag bar and it will be a much nicer launch, help 60 also.

Nice h/c times man, keep it up.

Because body is twisting so bad.. Would be a much nicer launch with a drag bar or even an air bag in RR wheel would help.
Not to mention it would sixty harder. I cut high 1.4 short times on motor full weight and niether tire comes up.. wheelies are not good, might be cool.. there is a reason the majority of posts in here are from 2009 and up members.. He has already stated it has hurt his times.

Like i said though, he is running some good times for sure.. Just shows there is more in the setup and he knows it.

I bet if you put a larger rear sway or drag bar on the rear both tires with see air. Looks nice

My guess is he may have a Detroit Locker differential. Those require a dry hop to make sure they are locked after the burnout. Or he is just making sure he heated the tires enough to hook.

oh I was just making sure the tires were heated enough since it wasnt hooking with the sway bar(s) off. With the 10 bolt I just had a regular posi, I have a spool in the 12 bolt
