Thanks! Weather is nice right now. Orlando Speedworld kinda sux though... lots of cars spinning. They don't really prep the track... just clean up oil downs, lol! Let me know if you come up, I'd love to get out there and check out your truck! I need to get back out there anyways... I know I can go faster w/ the 93 tune if I can get off the line. I wish there was a drag radial that was the stock height of a stock tire.

Yea , I know its not the best prep but I basically come off idle and roll into it anyway. Im more concerned about the temp . Would like to come up when the temp is in the mid to low 60s .
Stock 18" wheels on a 305/45/18 Micky or Nitto is 28.8 tall needs a 9.5 wide rim .
Stock 20" wheel needs a 275/40/20 Nitto 28.82 tall needs a 9.0 wide wheel .

Not alot of options .

Ill post something up when I do go .

Pete, are you trying to keep the stock diameter? I would just run a drag radial unless you are trying to stick with a street friendly setup.

If it changes the diameter too much will effect the shift points and load because of the rear end ratio changing . Not a very big deal just will need more tuning and set up .

Ive got something in the works besides the tires , Will be doing testing soon being shipped out Thursday and will post pictures soon.
Very excited about this mod .

LOL , No cup holders thats for sure . Im installing a bottle warmer to maintain the right pressure and purge kit , but the big mod will be a Upgraded Intercooler from Wagner-Tuning .
Once it comes in Ill start a new post and share pics with all of you . It looks great from what Ive seen so far .
I feel a better flowing intercooler along with lower temps will help me get close to the 11s . The biggest issue I have is with traction.
I hope to see 112 mph soon.

Made it to the track tonight. Was a nice 54 degrees and a decent prep due to Pro Test and Tune.

Drove 40 miles and first pass with out a cool down.

1st Run
R/T : -.130 Red Light
60': 2.386
330': 6.119
1/8: 9.271
MPH: 78.04
1000': 11.997
1/4: 14.337
MPH: 96.05

This was with a 100% stock truck. This was my only pass with the stock tune as I did not like running 14's.

When loading my Livernois 93 Performance V2 tune I noticed they had a code P0297 for vehicle overspeed saved in the computer. This is the first time this has popped up that I know of. I cleared code and installed tune.

2nd Run and 1st with tune
R/T: .079
60': 1.854
330': 5.580
1/8: 8.743
MPH: 77.74
1000': 11.482
1/4: 13.833
MPH: 95.70

I believe all this time was made up in the 60' as the truck didn't pick up any mph from previous run.

3rd and final run and 2nd with tune.
R/T: .380
60': 1.992
330': 5.720
1/8: 8.867
MPH: 78.15
1000': 11.593
1/4: 13.936
MPH: 95.96

All runs were launching in 4x4 and differential locked. Truck did not pick up much with tune and I plan on calling Rick tomorrow to talk to him about it. I just installed some new plugs that were gapped at .034" and not sure if this may be the problem. I'm going to try and get some more runs in next Wednesday with stock and Livernois tune.

I wonder if it has something to do with the 4.10. You have one of the best mph for a stock 4x4. What cab configuration do you have? I think these trucks should shift sooner, espeacially when they have steeper gears. Just a thought
