Well...6 months of BS and I finally found the problem with my Trans. My servo broke the clip and cracked the second gear servo piston. With that, it ate up my bands and my Z-pac and scarred up the case pretty bad. Fast forward to this weekend and I just have to button up the exhaust and x-member and back on the road. I sure hope this is the fix.
Also found my TC was coming loose again with red loc-tight. I cleaned all threads and loaded it up again with red and torqued to 50 lbs. I guess I will check before every track run. I just don't get the loose TC. My motor is too smooth to be an out of balance problem !!
It is too hot here for the track (for me). I guess I will just get some break in miles and wait on fall. In the mean time, I will retune after...adding injectors, and getting this thing off of 110 race gas and on E-85. A trailer Queen is not my bag !!! I have a 44 Bosch so I should be good to go.
10's are slow now..Pitt stuck at 11.14

Glad to hear its coming together!! 10's may be considered slow now compared to the fastest truck list but that is still dang fast for a street truck IMO. Would beat 95% of production vehicles anyway. Looking forward to your results later on this year!!
