What have you done to your suspension to hook up and run 8.5s?
Its ladder bars/coil overs and large sticky rear tires along with some gear. Its actully run 8.43 in the 1/8th so far. More convertor would really help a bunch.

What gear and stall?
Its a 4.56 gear, and the stall is claimed to be 3k, but is not even close. In their defense it is the heavy 3k lockup style convertor. A non-lockup would be much better, somthing in a 10" 3800ish...Would probably net 8.0's...

my new 2wd pop top ram charger will be lowered, some good info on here. I think ill cut the front coils and rear spring under and see where that gets me.
I highly recommend van lower control arms and/or Dakota drop spindles. The ride quality is reduced when cutting coils.
