Robby, I broke the trans again, and this time while it was down i decided to put a 9" in it instead of the factory 9.75. Multiple reasons, no c clip elims for the 9.75, alot more brakes on the 9", gear selection of the 9", and about 100lbs lighter for the 9"! Plus I changed the traction bar setup on it as well. No more HP yet, just wanna try to get the HP I am making now down to the track consistently.

Oh well, if the weather cooperates we may bring it out this evening to centerville.

Nope they left me alone. I think Hot Rod told them to let me run. That's on a drag radial with 10.2on wideband it was to rich. It was over boosting that morning so I turnd it down some and it was to much. I was running about 11psi vs normal of 15 and it pulls much harder when I adjusted it when we got home.

I spun the 315/60/15 Mickey Thompsons for a few feet last saturday night and the truck was running poorly. Brought it home, Brian found out the problems Sunday and now we're putting the 10.5s on it so we can run Hot Street next Saturday night. Best 60' sat was a 1.59 spinning and off the footbrake.
