Still, any street driven daily driver truck in the 12's is pretty quick. 99% on the road wouldn't hold a candle against you.

I finally got my RevMax billet 9.5" 3600 (actual stall) installed. Now I need to address.my serious traction issues. Next I'll be ditching the crap Gov-Bomb with a Eaton TrueTrac and prob a set of CalTracs bars.

The next time you go on regular street tires, drive around the water box and just do a little dry hop instead of a burnout. The rubber compound in regular street tires get greasy and oily when they get hot vs drag slicks and DR's compound get stickier (to a point) when they get hot.

Prob will pickup another tenth in your 60ft on regular tires just avoiding the box and doing a dry hop.

Re: my 80 build
 

that's what I usually do is a dry light spin, but I couldn't help my self kept doing john force burnouts lol

That's wicked hot Aaron! Out of curiosity, what was the cam that you went with?

Re: my 80 build
 

texas speed 228r

Re: my 80 build
 

a little better at the track 8.07 with a 1.84, tried to run better so took the tailgate off and speaker box, it was much cooler out, then the track wouldn't hold best was a 8.14 with a 1.97 60 foot wheel hopped really bad at least 30 ft

Re: my 80 build
 

I'm not really for sure, i'm going with some ccp tubular control arms

Re: my 80 build
 

Thanks for the info on the Texas Speed cam.

Are you going to go with some coil overs or what inside those tubular control arms?

My POS is still at a stand still which is why I haven't started a build thread yet! The follies of having to do it at a buddies house only on Sundays for half a day at a time!:waah:

Re: my 80 build
 

no problem, just the cut coils, you'll get there

Re: my 80 build
 

ordered the control arms should be here in a couple weeks

Re: my 80 build
 

Re: my 80 build
 

I put the stock control arms back on got a junk yard control arm left the sway bar off cut a 1.77 60ft and 8.005 was my best time

Re: my 80 build
 

Any 60ft less than 1.8 on a stock suspenson style truck is damn quick outta the hole.

No CalTracs yet, right?

Re: my 80 build
 

nope, just a bunch of big guys putting weight on my truck when I launched

Re: my 80 build
 

keep choppin away at that 60' time and you'll easily be in the 7's.....you're runnin 3:73"s right?.....try some 4:10"s then if traction/hopping becomes an issue, soften up those rear springs....
