I'd be scared for the stock pistons if you're running them. Otherwise, I'm confident in the stock rods at those RPMs and stock crank too. Dragging the shift points out should be interesting as on those dyno sheets you posted there seemed to be more up top.

Why don't you just spray from launch through the shifts also? Or are you stopping due to reaching full boost?

Oh and yeah, a high flow muffler or unbolt that stocker is going to unleash a LOT more power.

I think you can do it. Are you gonna just sacrifice the 02's or run it in open loop?

I also think tires might be the key. Can you put on some sticky street tires?

also remember, that these calculations dont mean much. alot of other factors, so who knows maybe your alot closer to 10's than it seems. i noticed comparing your video to C3C5's. you seemed to come out of the whole bout the same or maybe faster and he ran a 11.06 w/ alot more weight. good luck

i didn't spin the stock tires at all on sat, i was pulling 1.77's or so, i need to get that short time down alot i think and this truck should be able to do that.

i wont have any tires for friday but if i find myslef blowing them off i will get some, i would like to see some low 1.6's eventualy

i am going to pull both stock 02's and run it open loop, then not add the leaded fuel till i get there, then pull the wide band sensor out before i drive home. i am prety sure it will last the night and even longer if i run some unleaded at it for awhile between leaded nights. i sure hope so anyways, that sensor is close to $200

Hehehe. Got three guys going for 10s in one weekend. This should be great.

Jim, you really need an "in truck" camera and someone in the stands with another. Kinda like nascar. Just strap it to the seat or something.
