Maybe, got to find where this trans is spewing oil from first

Kinda burned out right now. In the last 4 weeks I drove to detroit, assembled the motor, put the car together, redid the whole fuel system, ran it, broke the trans, rebuilt the trans and ran it again. I'm kinda sick of looking at the thing to be honest

The reason I ask about the tires is that I am going to order another set of 10-in Prostars and would really like to swap gears in order to use a set of 28x10.5-15 so as to get a bigger footprint. That is one good looking car you have, I really dig the videos. Thanks in advance and good luck to ya.

The KR comes just staging the car and even letting off it. It was fine last year with the same setup pretty much. Only things changed, besides the short block and heads, were an ATI balancer and poly motor mounts. Something is setting them off, who knows what..

They are 10.5x28x15 ET drags, just some hammering of the inner fenders, pulling back the bumper cover and and trimming the bump stops. They are close but dont rub, adjustable LCAs and PHB are a must..

Thanks Kp, I will keep that in mind when I make the swap. Sounds like maybe something is bumping when the motor is torqueing over and when it returns to a resting postion. Did the motor mounts change the motor height or off set it enough for the headers to be banging on something maybe? Thanks again.

Who knows, its he same setup I ran for around 200 passes last year. Nothing is really banging or anything, the car is pretty quiet with the muffler on and I dont hear anything abnormal. I could have dropped one maybe, thats all it takes to mess one up. I'm not that concerned about the knock sensors really, I can turn them on for street driving and turn them off for the track..
