my best 60' on the stock firestones was 1.62, now i have some wider perilis and they dont seem to hook as well but i haven't really givin them a fair chance. i need to mess with the tire presure a little and not go nut on them like i did last time(100shot and 14psi). i dont expect them to get me to my goal and that is 9's. i think some 1.4x's would take me a long ways toward my goal of nines and thats what i want to hit.

that 1.62 run with the stock tires was after several runs working my way up to the limit of the tires and then beyond and backing down from there. i just made run after run turning up a hair each time untill i started smoking the tires.

1.4's would be about .4 off the 1/4. And 14psi wit ha 100 shot should be worth .3-.4. So if you get the 6.0 to hook you may have a chance, and have the worlds baddest stock block.

Its all about bragging rights, and you gott'em.

Where did you get the Bogart's....I didn't know they made anything for the 6 lug pattern. Do you have any pics of them on your truck? I bet they look sweet, and I know they weigh next to nothing!

Yea they had to custom make them. I dont have any pics of them but they look pretty sick. I havent got to run down the track with them yet cause my truck is on the lift getting a 4l80 put in it
