Thanks Rick
I've been on the hunt for one myself,but they're a rare animal to find up here,and springing for one of MMX's ported ones makes my ass hurt,lol.To get one into Western Canada just about doubles the price,ouch.

Outstanding run,what was the DA on that pass?
Zaza

I believe this pass was 700 or so DA,
Since this run I added water **** injection, tune still has much room in it (only 13 degrees of timing). We will see an 11 second pass soon I hope.

Being in Texas,you should easily get an 11 sec pass in next winter,when the DA drops to -800ft,lol. Buy some decent drag radials for it and run it in 2 wheel drive mode,that should get you a bit more.Depending on how much you use it as a 4X4 you can drop the complete front diff assembly from the driveshaft forward out of it.You'll lose roughly 120lbs of front end weight,and 40lbs of that is rotating axle weight.On my 4X4 dropping the driveshaft/diff/and CV's was good for 2/10's and a couple mph

What drag radials do you suggest? These MT S/S street seem to hook good now...I had to install a Detroit truetrac differential, stock one was shot after the procharged install.

Street SS or Street R's are pretty decent. With a 1.81 60ft I figured you were spinning,as that's not a real good 60ft for a boosted and convertor'd 8 speed. My 4X4 with stock convertor and 3.55 geared tru trac, 60fts in the mid 1.50's and dead hooks on 305/17 Street R's.

Last weekend I had a better 60' it was in the 1.7 second range as well as my best 1/8 mile. Unfortunate cylinder 8 lost spark after 1/8th and coasted from there. Ran 12.8 @ 91 mph, LoL.
I have 3.21 gears

IMHO those 3.21's aren't doing you any favors---

I have slips in the truck, best was 15.063 at 93 mph. All stock, lowered rear tire pressure a little, and she rolls in at about 5800 lbs with me fat A55 in the seat. She was run at full weight when she pulled the 15.063. Also it was my 1st time ever running on a track.
She's got 3:21 rear and open diff.
