I was unaware of any official stock short/long block rules but I guess haters need something to bitch about. Guess I'll have to say stock block, crank, rods, pistons, and heads from now on.

The 9.18 pass was on all stock 240 rear end and axles. I recently swapped in a q45 rear diff and beefier q45/300zx axles. Should be quite a bit stouter that the stock 240 stuff. I had broke a couple axles along the way and that should t be a worry now.

After the fuel system upgrades I still plan to run e85. If I was running gas I would have enough fuel system now.

My stall flashes to the 4500 range. Goes between 5900-6000 on the transbrake. I use a lingenfelter 2step and we were leaving at 3500rpms with about 7-8 psi. I'm thinking now I'll be able to leave a bit harder with the beefier rear end stuff.
