DAMN.

That so cant be good on axle shaft.

So in comparison to head, cam and spray turck, whats the difference.. It looks like this one leave harder, or did the othr truck have better suspesnion.

Are you running a stall? and is that a PT88 still on it. Reason i ask is the whipple is coming off this week looking at T76 or something

I still have the 88 but I think the 76 was a better fit. With spray my old truck ran 13.5 with cam and spray 12.98. I had the converter built for my old truck. N/A it stalls 2800 with the turbo it stalls 3800. If I had the stall in my old truck before the cam I'm sure it would ran close to what my truck does now.
With heads, cam, and spray truck left much harder. Generally it would spin all 4 for 20 feet.

Awsome,

I guess i do a 76mm with a 96 ar.. im going to run stock converter until it dies.. even then i doubt ill do a big stall, unless they make the "flash" ones now in trucks.

On the foot brake with the wipple mine goes 2600 with out the whipple its like 1300...

Now that impala SS, had that "flash" converter i think is what they called it.. it pulled out normal like there wasnt a stall but if you turned the traction off and held the brake it went to 3K rpms..

Ill sill tow with mine so im not interested in a stall unless they do one of those flash deals.. Ill prob need a new trans too.. mine isnt in the best shape.
