Nice shakedown runs. Anxious to see you let her loose with a 9" and some QTPs. I'm still on my borrrowed time 10bolt too - money just doesnt come fast enough, does it??? I stay away from the track for fear of breaking it...definetly cannot afford a 12bolt right now, so better safe then sorry. Its seen one high 11 pass on DRs, thats enough until a new rear is sitting in the garage as backup!

What I wouldnt give for a 12bolt and some slicks

Keep us posted!

Nice. That is just badass. Glad I could help with the funding.
Sucks about the overheating, guess you can't finish a huge project and not expect a few bugs though.

Well I wired both Fans in earlier, this time in the stock locations. Both are on Relay Circuits, set to High Speed and still set to a manual Switch so both come on at the same time. It should help alot better.

I feel ya..what I ran is roughly high 11's..and that was just bs'n around. It needs a 9" in the back for some weight, and to get the power hooked.
