i thought my little bros. truck was not going to be that fast, when it ran a 12.8 i said that i could beat it on the street with my truck but no it just kept pulling and pulling away from me then he changed the converter to one that flashed all the way to 3800 and it feels like another animal as you can see on the vid the rpms dont drop at all,the other day i drove the truck and its some other **** i felt in love with it it feels realy fast on the street and even if you hit it at 30 it will not peel out any bit very nice truck and soon to have 150 shot and some other godies, only thing is that over 120 the driveshaft starts vibrating really bad

good luck with the truck bro keep making it faster

nice truck bro, damn the speedo moves freaking quick!! I like the shift extensions, have you logged it to see what the rpm drops too after the shift? mine only drops to 4950-5000 rpms after the shift. I have noticed everyone in the valley running those converters are having real good luck with them....

It drops back to like 5800, you can see it in the vid but it's hard to tell. I had a fuddle 3600 but it only flashed to 2500 and dam 60' were in the high 1.80s. I put this one in and first run was 1.67 60'. Im sure that with a c-notch my sixty footers will get better because right know it launches very hard that the diff hits the chassi hard and bounces back up and the tires spin.

hey ap those converters are working really good the truck went from a 12.80@106 to a 12.51@109.41 just with a converter changed and the 60 foots went down also so this converters are bad *** for the price only 500.00 dollars and they have them ready in 3 days you cant beat that hopefully with the c-notch and some better 60 footers the time will go down, because the mile per hour is there for a low 12 second pass

Its pretty easy the hood and grill is just a matter of replacing the original, the bumper you just have to modify the brackets so it sit like an inch lower.

unless the old converter was junk, im wondering how he gained 3mph with a converter...usually large converters eat mph but gain ET/60'

nice truck tho, like the front end
