like i said before, as far as you are off of where you should be, i would think that if the tranny was the problem you would feel it and it would be obvious(i would think?)....same with the rear....and as far as the tune, you had it done at w2w, right? i would find it hard to believe they screwed it up, but perhaps take it back there to have them look it over and get it on the dyno?

i'm not the best trouble shooter in the world, but even for those who are i would imagine they'd need a little more info to narrow it down.....

get some tires and wheels... you trap looks good in the 8th but your ET sucks.. with that trap you should hit 7.5 which is inline with what you have...

your 60' sucks which is where your tires and wheels will help

dyno it and see what power your making

it looks like your spinning badly.... get some MT DR's or some ET streets and make sure you have a under drive pulley. and grab atleast some 3.73 gears...

have a partner make sure your tires arent spinning...

don't feel a bad I ran a 12.5 @106ish with a 230x227 cam, headers, 3500 stall, mickey's 3.73 gears, lid, crappy tune, and full bolt ons.

Going to go back to the track in a few weeks, with a stage 3 4l60e, 150 shot, and a better tune. Will see what happens
