That's imnpressive since you did this with mud tires...LMAO !

You oughta get something that hooks up...or is this with an open rear? Because your 60' sucks!
If you can get the 60' time into the 1.6 range you'll be in the 13's for sure.

BTW, what do you think your truck weighs?

My handy dandy caculator based on an estimated weight of 5400 lbs says you should be running 13.65's...so yeah, lack of traction.

The powertrax alone might be worth .5 just for the hookup.

BTW my "pocket dyno" says 419 hp...Sweet!

How were the temps looking after the passes? Your ET and 60' will imporove the more pass's you can make with it. These are almost shake down passes.

I'd say one wheel squeal.

My suspension guy used to tell me "for every second of tire spin, there's a tenth of a second to cost you a win".

my temps were climbing. the engine was close to 200. but thats something else i am working on right now. running the black magic 180 efan now. temps were always low until i installed the s/c. now they climb close to 200. but i have 2 12" fans, sheetmetal, wiring harness,relay,rubber seal for the shroud i build. 180fan is 3300cfm, the new fans are 2300cfm each. should help a good bit. my intercooler blocks my rad a bit. so its not really getting the air it should. i prolly would have it all fabbed by now but i didnt know what i was gonna do with the washer bottle. i didnt want any lights on in the dash. i have a nice stainless overflow tank for the rad too.both fasten to the factory shroud. but i think i got it figured, maybe. just sent the money out for a moes washer tank for the hemi trucks. it has 2 holes for the sensors. so i will just have to wait and see when it gets here. may have wasted 75$ on it. but its worth the chance.

The S/C's just build heat in general. Even with the low temp T'stats and coolers we run they can still get high.

i am running a highflow water pump and 180stat too. i have tried 3 different stats hoping that would make a difference for a easy fix, but that was a no go. thought about trying it out with no stat and see what happens. but everything i have done i have made sure there is no lights on in the dash. and i have a feeling if i ran a 160* stat or no stat check engine light would come on. and that is a big peev of mine, check engine lights.

and if the new efan setup i fab doesnt work, gonna have a big ass radiator made.

Pretty good times with 35's, sounds like fun. So what cooling system will you be running next since the one you have now is ineffective?

its really not ineffective. it will run all day long without issues. cruizin and such. 200* is the most i have ever seen it get. and thats hammering on it hard a few times. and on a 90*+ day. and if you stop hammering on it it cools right back down. i just want it to run a consistant temp at all times. even when running it hard. around like 180*. its 40miles just to get to the track. and it never got even close to half on the temps.
