Congrats, nice time. I think you are the first non nitrous assisted whipple in the 11's. I was hoping to be the first, but torn up engines dont make it down the track
It will be intersting to see how much more the 50 shot helps.
you do any weight reduction? Or do you run in full street form?

What size tire are you running? You might just go with a slightly taller tire.

Looks like it may be best to switch to 3.73's

I'm running 4.10's, only because I used to have a 4.8 liter. I think I would be happier with 3.73's with the 6.0. The 3.73's will pick up some mph up top, not
sure how bad if any they would hurt your 60ft time, I imagine not enough to worry about.

Are you using any kind of stall? I don't have a stall and was wondering if I would benifinit from it seen the boost comes on so fast.

thanks
