I am going to try it out with the 26x8.5"s first, and if I do hit the limiter, I am going to switch to the 28x9"s since they are 27.3" tall. I know you and John (gator's 99TA) had good luck with them.

Right now with this current converter I'd run better with 28x9x15's probably.

Thanks man, but I think I am going to go with a 12 bolt. With how thin the ring and pinion are on a 4.10, I have a bad feeling that I would shread the teeth off and be spending more and money for nothing.

Im gonna buy more towards the spring, and like I said yesterday I think I am steering more towards a 9 inch. If you are going to buy in the spring maybe we can get a better deal?

And btw no nitrous on the car, i think were going to move away from it, i've never even filled the bottle, the car doesent even have a nitrous converter.

fastest the car has gone was 12.1 at 111 or so with a 3500+ DA untuned ect.
You know that, i belive ALOT of people here know it, and i have 6 timeslips to prove it.

Besides, its a waste of time for both of us to set up a race thats one sided, im here to play, not fart around.

Why not this season?

I hate when people say 'next spring'...It means winter talk has begun. Winter talk sucks because it's just a time for people to talk big game and know they won't need to back it up.

I understand tuning the carb and suspension, but how do you tune the trans? Do you have a 4l80 behind the BBC?
