Man your trucks sick, i had black with red stripes before i murdered mine. Have my 6.0 turbo an e85 conversion in hopefully before winter. Then start saving for a 80e

Sharpeshooter: I run 100% E85, nothing else.
Silver: I do have the front sway removed.
Tarinitup: I currently have lakewood 90/10's on the nose and rancho's set on 9 firmness on rear.
And to all the other gear heads thanks for the support and help with getting the truck this far. I always have fun running it and enjoy be a little different out at the track then most setups. The little GM holds it's on and i'm blessed/thankful god keeps me off the walls and gets me home!

I agree with the guys saying keep the rear firm.My best traction has been when there is jus enough squat for roll out if you get what that means.Another way to put it would be squat happens soon as you let off the brake.Im talkin like a 1"-2" drop in the rear no more.
Whats kind of back pressure is in the log under at 18psi?
I'd imagine e85 would compound a backpressure issue?

Foose how much boost u leaving on? If mine was that consistant in the 60's id be happy lol.... I get a 1.64 when it does hook but im also looking for some weight transfer off the line, i do that 60' with the standard 4" Beltech Spindle/shock drop... I dont see much transfer in yours even with the 90/10 shocks and that is the route im about to go

Not sure on current back pressure, I wonder the same thing though. Why do you think E85 would add to back pressure? Extra fuel volume?
Here is a slow-motion from another night. This is leaving at 3500-9psi boost.

I know you like the " it has 20s on it" but to me it isn't very true anyhow having smaller out back. Get some skinnies up front and you will be able to keep all the weight on the rear tire longer. As soon as the front tire is about to come off you can see the truck stop transfering weight.
Truck is kickass no matter how you cut it. Damn good looking, fast as hell, and cool on a 4.8.
You going to swap to a 6.0 if your hand in forced?
