Rich I've seen that vid and it is truly impessive. Yes that's exactly what it felt like, just not quite as wild... I mean you have 1000hp lol. Next time I go back and lower tire pressures to 20psi and crank more preload into the rear bars. I'm gonna wait until this winter to see if I can get some negative DA.

So the interesting thing is, I didn't blow up the BAP or the fuel pump. The auxiliary studs on the fuse box no longer have 12V? Just about every vehicle on earth that I've seen has a 150-200amp fuse inline between the battery and the fuse box, so I'm thinking somehow I blew that fuse, which is concealed underneath the fuse box case? I spent the last 2 nights doing the dual pump install, I go to turn the key and prime the pump today and I get nothing. I'm like, wtf? So I bypass the hotwire kit and boom! wheeeeeeeeeen. Then I put the 12V hot for the hotwire directly to the battery and plug it back in at the pump and it wheens again. I bench tested my F90000274 and it sounds completely fine. So now, I've got an extra pump for when I do my triple pump setup.

Anyone know what these 2 red wires are for? On a side note, the motor sounds healthy and runs normal. SBE LSX

The 12v should go directly to the back of the alternator.

I planned to relocate the 12V for the hotwire, but what do those two posts provide 12V to?

Did you runs look about like this (skip to 55seconds)?

If so, that's just too much power for the track plain and simple.
OH MY WOW!!!!

That was on drag radials. It was fun actually, not the first time that had happened.

Cammed you've brought a really old thread back from the dead lol. When I went 1.91 60ft during the pass described in the first post of this thread, it felt like I had to countersteer during the entire 60ft, then all of a sudden grabs and goes. A pretty cool feeling in 4wd! I had 2 entire cranks of preload for that run. Several months later when I had time to go back to the track, I removed all preload and backed out the bars an additional 2 full turns, the truck has gone 1.6x every time without a 2 step. I've also done the shock relocation since as well, which I think was absolutely crucial to getting it to hook. Now, even on the street in 2WD, it hooks real real well, far better than it did before the shock relocation.
