Yeah man, it was great. The tires I’ve got are completely done now though. I made a few more passes and couldn’t make anything happen. The next best was 11.99. I’ve got new tires coming in Tuesday though, and another track day set for Friday.

Best 60’ I got to as 1.724, I don’t remember my 1/8 mile information as I was focusing on 1/4 mile. If I recall it was mid-high sevens (like 7.70 ish) and around 92mph. I’ll have a look at the old slip this evening and report back.

Thats awesome, I wish my old 2v could have run 7's n/a

I’m messing with launch rpm and it seems like 6k is about where it does best. I did launch at 7k once and it hooked, but the car jumped hard and I’m pretty sure I let of the throttle momentarily. I’m going to look back at datalogs and confirm. Over all it was a good night.

Sure seems like the power is there. I’m pretty happy with it. Now I’m wondering how much difference the new headers will make.

I’m kind of wondering if I need to step back a little. I feel like I’m going to be chasing 10’s before too long.

Back off? Content with 11.60’s? Lol, I can see that notion dissipating quickly.

I’ve seen a couple guys on the internet do it, and all of them claim to trap 119 every time. Fastest I’ve gotten was 118. I don’t know how much better I can make my 60’ either. I’m going to keep working on it. I don’t think I’m doing bad for a relatively stock truck engine.
