i have more hp, but your truck is heavier... so those could equal out. its just for reference, everyones setup is different. i've had 6 different converters, and i can tell you they make a HUGE difference in track times between each other.

Skeet I wish. You know our friend Robert put it on the lift and he even said it was the stall.

Now with both Joshua and Nick getting 3600's, and I have 4.10's on the rear going up in the stall maybe not a bad idea. Just have to see the cost b/c I'm strapped.

Fortunately this stall is under warranty for 24 months, so all I have to do is ship it back. I spoke to PI and even to put another disc in would cost me an additional $385, is that ridiculous?

What kind of noise did it make when it went? Did it sound like a fan blade smacking around? I think my tc just took a poo also. Sorry to hear about your luck, like you I'm truckless for a while.
