2nd gear pull <br/>Tuner was cunnigham motorsports <br/>Gonna save some cash and get a custom driveshaft <br/>

 

Dyno pull was on nov 20 2015

 

Any more updates on this? I was working on a similar swap, but changed plans at the last minute.

 

Bought some rims 18x10 and some mt drag radials gonna get my driveshaft next and hit fontana drag strip

 

Truck was #7009<br/>What u guys think it was my best pass of the day 4 passes total <br/>Where can I improve

 

Hey man.

For improving your track time, try to work on your launch. Getting your 60ft down below 2.0sec will get you into the high 12's.

I am assuming the track passes were made with the Mickey Thompson's? Were you spinning? Try various launching styles/techniques and see which ones works best for you. Also, you'll probably need to play with tire pressure to maximize traction.

In terms of et, you're leaving a lot on the table with a 2.4sec 60ft, but its a starting point! Getting that 60ft down will yield significant results

 

Yea thats what the told me 60 ft is where u can make a difference
First run was at idle then the second one i power braked it to like 2k and i spun pretty bad i have a 3200 stall
Thanks for the info on psi who knws where i was at 18-20 is where im putting it this Sunday
Hopefully i can improve my times
