When you get ready for a throttle body look at the classified section over at the svt forum you can usually find a used one at half price.

I know I now have 410's, but the new tires are almost 2" taller, so I don't think shifting will be a problem, hopefully.
I already had the bias ply mickey's 28x11.5x17 and they dead hooked at the track, even with very little to no burn out. They turned in a 1.85 60'. I'm making a little more power now and have lower gears, but the taller tires I believe will help fight against wheel spin and help the truck roll out more before it needs to shift. it did a 1.79 60' on the dyno with the short drag tires and 373 gears. they put the street tires on it with the 410's and it did a1.52 60' time. Hence the decision to opt for a taller tire. I'm pretty happy with everything so far. They've offered to go to the track with me and do some datalogging in order to dial in the transmission in case there's any problems left over. They learned a lot working on my truck, lol. |

Does this truck have a lot of mods that aren't listed in your signature?
I don't see anywhere near a 10.7 happening. Mathematically, you need 800rwhp+ to run that. A 1.5 60ft is going to take a converter and traction. Also, a steel body truck needs to trap 130mph+ in real life to break into the 10's. |

The MT 3574's (current drag tire) are 28x11.5x17. That's almost identical in size to 285/50/17, which is what I used for the tire and rim calculator
