If nothing changes, a nv4500 with a ProFab 3 speed kit is gonna be the way to be competitive on a regular basis... It's like anything else in the sport.

Youtube Matt gainer's truck or Rob hall's truck. Neither one have a problem "blowing the tires off" on a tight track off the line. I know Matt was running air to air back in the day with what we now call small exh housings but I don't think Rob was. IMHO I don't think you have a advantage with a zf over a allison. They both wiegh about the same. I would go with a high stall tc and stick with the allison.

No Mark said its a street truck somehere in Ohio now brion built that eclb truck after running Matt's truck for a year or two last I knew it was black now

Ok, i was wondering what you were getting at. Because Brion's silver EC LB truck he bought from us and hauled straight to Broviak's. He converted it to a ZF, too. He sold it supposedly closer to PA now. Hopefully we see it.

Rob Hall had no issues with the trans. He was destroying the ring and pinion on a regular basis. That's where 2.6 is limited right now in my opinion. Even with the fancy fabbed rear ends.
