Re: Made my first pass down the strip.
Nice! I am putting one of those 14 bolt's in my '65 for fear that the 12 bolt wont hold up to the 550 hp my measly 383 puts out!

A truck 12bolt will hold 550 no problem. If anything at all I'd just do c clip eliminators and good axles. OP, is your truck 4wd? You have a brace kit for the idler and pitman arm and set of sleeves or rare parts or similar tie rods? Launch that thing in 4hi and see if it brings down that 60'. If you don't have those items, deffinitly don't do that though haha.

Re: Made my first pass down the strip.
I have the thick tie rods. But 4wd launch would slow me down. I was not spinning at all. My brakes would not hold to let me come up on the convertor. And it was dead hooking and "bogging" from the hit. I am looking into different tires (shorter and lighter then the 33"s on it) to help next.
