So as far as internal engine parts all you have is a cam? No head work? Impressive!

What is the most effective launch technique?

nope everything still stock of course car has hardened push rods , good springs, but stock rockers, no head work , only kooks header, kooks x pipe, flowmaster c5 kit, vararaam filter, no gear ,no shifter . i tried the 6000 launch like j rod but it didnt do as good as i would have expected, i still run stock clutch and believe it or not it didnt slip at 6000 on bfg drags with only 15lbs . i have been launching at 4000 rpm while slipping clutch a little and it performs well, but the best so far is just getting rpms up to 4200 and dropping clutch real snappy , and car has ran very consitant 1.67 60 ft times several times over and over. on stock f1's it does better slipping the clutch at 3800 and best i could get was 1.77 60 ft on bone stock motor j rods 6000 launch faired well as i ran the other pass at 1.68 60ft but overall time was just a bit slower, i only got to run car two times yesterday but j rod has been running the 6000 launch more than me so i will just have to keep trying different things.

yes, w/ the exception of the shot peened 3.42's, the tag will have 3.42sp on it, usually DR users will install the LPE left output shaft and DTE brace

What's up man. Glad you got to make some passes. Those are some nice 60fts. I think I could have cracked the 11.0x range if I could have gotten my 60ft's down like yours. My BFGs won't hold much more than a 4,000 clutch slip with 16lbs hot. Try Fayetteville next time. I got the blower on and am getting the clutch and out put shaft and a better tune for more boost done at the end of the month. So I will be down for the track any time in April. I would like to see your car run.

Later,
Brett
