Does removing the overload help in squatting the rear, or does it cause an axl wrap issue? I'm seen people with both answers, so lets here your response to it. Did you have the overload removed pre-caltrac and get any 60ft times? I could see the combo of removing it and the caltracs working pretty good.

I had to remove the overload leaf to get the Caltrac bar on since my truck is so low. The low profile bars would hit the overload leafs.

So I didn't get any before and after numbers. But my best 60' on motor w/ the 20's was a 2.18 or so. I really feel that it should have picked up a little more 60' on motor, but like I said I think there is quite a bit left in tuning the PCM and suspension. The 1.75 was on the bottle, spraying 5-10 feet out. It hooked REALLY well when I did that. I just need to set everything up to be able to take the hit of the bottle outta the hole and pray for 1.5-1.6 short times.
