what gear you running? with that much tire i would think you would have around a 430 gear or 456
My heads have been milled .030. Texas Speed told me I couldn't run it without flycutting the pistons and I just don't think its worth it with stock **** in there. Those tires are on a cheap set of 15x10 rims I got from Summit. I'm hoping to see some close up pics of my launches to see if they are making contact. Can't really tell inside the cab.

I'm running a 3.73 at the moment. I came up on those tires the day before we left, and I said what the hell and mounted them. I'm planning on a gear swap here soon because I really like the way the tires hook up. I think a gear swap would really help out on the 60

430 + 150 shot off line + those tires = should be good 60's

makes sense with the heads

You know, I can't really remember the size(been on there since 04), but I do know its a permacool brand cooler. I really need to upgrade to a larger one or maybe even two like the one I have.

nah, just get the one I have believe me I am surprised at how good the **** works, my converter flashes @ 3900, and with my old cooler which was a 28kgvw it would heat up with a quickness up to 210F+, with this one I HARDLY see 160F and that is treating it bad in the summer time when we were tuning it....
