purchase suggestions, thoughts, opinions
#1
hey, i was just looking for some suggestions, thoughts, or opinions on a purchase im about to make, check it out
my current mods are listed in my signature
purchase:
FAL E-Fans-nelson harness
underdrive pulley set w/belt
transgo-shift kit
corvette servos
external transmission cooler
4.10 gears
posi
3000 stall torque converter (yank)
thats my package buy im fixing to do very soon, i was wanting opinions on adding those mods, because my death on the track seems to come from my 60ft times. So i was looking for any input i can get, also maybe some suggestions in that area.
Internal engine mods will come later, but for right now, im just doing my supporting mods.
and also, if anyone has any thoughts on track time improvements, with my death at the 60ft mark, im running like a lifetime best of 15.09, but usually around the 15.5 range, give or take a bit, cuz everytime i seem to goto my track, its humid as ****, im talking about as soon as u get out of the truck, ur sticky, sweat pouring down ur head, its bad luck i guess. But SOTP the truck is capable of so much better, on the street, i have taken cars running faster than what my track times are. so, anyways, yah, 60ft sucks *****.
i dont have a slip on me, but it is usually around 2.3 .2.4 in that range.
i spin alot, and ive tried several different ways of launching, i know how to drive, i just cant get that tire to stick.
right now my rear end is a 3.42 single tire fire. and that sucks for launching, anyways, i would appreciate any suggestions, im always happy to hear input

A 3000 stall tc will help launches for sure, but it would be useless with the peg leg. Get a posi and gears. Then, look at the torque converter, shift kit, servo, and cooler. E-Fans and pulleys should be last on the list. And pulleys are debatable.

it has been proven by a member on here on a dyno that the TB spacer shows absolutely NO hp or tq gains actually some claim a drop from restriction in the intake tract... so take it offf and sell it to some fool on ebay to recouperate some of the costs
