> yeah he went 11.40 and then did a back to back 10.90 and 2 of those passes were off idle at launch. We put in a new 350 turbo and a circle d 5500 stall. The tranny is a reverse valve body so he’s just tryin to get used to it. I have the timing backed up so its not even close to where it was last year. He did try the trans brake once but his tires are shot from his john force burnouts he did last year and he ended uo with a 2. something 60ft. Once we get the back lowered more, his new tires in and he gets used to the new tranny he should beable to hit histimes he wants. Last year he went 10.30 NA with a shitty powerglide and a 4000 stall. Were in the stages of tryin to tran an old dog new tricks lol

Yeah the run I saw he didnt have traction til about the 1/8 mile lol. Cant wait to see it come out more this year, its a nasty lil truck.

> Truck should wake up with the deeper first gear of the 350 trans. Thats a good bit of converter but a bit better than the 4000 for that motor. Good luck with it.

> Surprised you have to run that low tire pressure with those tires. My ET’s never had to go below 15-16psi. How old are those tires?

Ive had to run 14 psi or below with them. They are a little old…manufactured the 24th week of 02’…
