Default Folks with Yank TT3000s...

What is the best 60 foot you have cut at the track?

I have a TT3000 and the best 60' I have had is around 2.08 to 2.13. I have NEVER had a sub-2 second 60'. I'm also launching in 4wd, so no spin. I've tried just idling then flashing the converter, stalling it to 1,000 rpm, then flashing it, stalling it as high as I can get it (~2,400 rpm) then punching it... nothing works.

My buddy has a yank 3000 in a SSS AWD with lt's, cam, and tuned by himself. He pulls 1.8 60's with a little bit of spin.

I find that hard to believe that he is spinning with AWD and just cam/headers/tune.

I'd look at your tune... Sounds. Like you may be pulling some timing out of the hole if you're running that converter, dead hooking, and still not under 2 seconds...

Yea me too, but ive witnessed it he goes 13.90 on motor which is screaming for his mods being AWD. that 3000 stall will make almost anything spin though with just regular street tires I would think.

that's why i'm asking what people are getting for 60' times. i mean i've got all the typical bolt ons and 3.73s and still no sub-2.0. unfortunately i can't look at the tune as i have no tuning software. maybe i should invest in HPtuners...

Hmmm, I had a 3000TT, cam, LT's, full custom exhaust, CAI, UD pulleys, 160 thermo, worked over tune and I couldn't bark the tires (in my 03 SSS)....especially at the track with the sticky surface. I ran into the high 13's with that set-up.

Exactly, I would look into your burst knock settings as well. I would see spark being pulled with no KR present,...checked all of the adder tables and finally zero'd the burst KR. Deffinately a difference on the launch.
