Waiting for second vid

Car moves pretty good! 145mph in 4th is solid. Now if we can get some mo powa and launch the SOB without breaking, that mph would be good for a 9.99 pass haha

Mv has the vid if he doesn't mind posting it.. It's pretty funny. I'm gonna mount a gopro next time and come summer or some spare time I got just about everything for my nitrous set up. Should be pretty fun with a little more boost and a 100 shot

Thought I would update this...80 for me comes in at just a hair over 2k RPM's since I have 26 1/4" tire's. It turns out that the groan/reverberation mainly while lugging forth gear is indicative of a misalignment somewhere in the drivetrain, as the T56 is apparently very sensitive to misalignment.

Since this began immediately after the 8.8" install, it only makes sense that something after the trans is now misaligned rather than a pilot bushing or something else going bad. I'll try to get something on this over the weekend.

Yes keep us posted, I don't like the sounds of that. I know some people have posted about vibes at certain speeds, and was a concern of mine when I bought the kit.
If you find a solution please share.
