Yeah it's just a little improvement but we keep chipping away!

10.39 @ 130!

DA was 3500, temp 90° and traction negligible. She only did a 1.53 due to all the street tired cars pulling up the prep and rubber.

Overall it was lots of fun with zero issues!

It's mild enough on the street that it gets driven everywhere! We've put over 7,000 miles on it since 2016.

My goal for this year with this particular setup and tune was 10.20's. Hopefully Fall weather and some prep gets me there.

Thanks, guys, I am having a lot of fun with it!

I learned 95% of everything I implemented in this build from the guys here on Moparts.

I built the entire powertrain myself (other than axle ends and setting up the Dana 60 gears) so it has been a very rewarding project.

Some food for thought and just my opinion...don't try to go too much faster w/ a heavy car. It gets way more expensive and less fun. It has it's fun times, like when everything goes good at the track, but I think I had more fun w/ the car running mid to low 10s. It was all motor then too, which was a lot less work and aggravation.

No plans to push it too much further. Would like to do a 9.99 once, but the stars would have to align.

it will absolutely not get cut up or lightened up any further!
