Head Space and Timing. Simple. :joker:

Jordan you make me want to go race my stock truck! Are you still running a tranny that has came really close to being limped once?

Once? Dude I've limped like 3 times. But its only on my 4th to 5th upshift. Who needs 5th gear in the 1/8th mile lol When you gonna come out an drink a beer. I know Oklahoma is getting old lol

Yes, I meant launch at a lower rpm with the big tires. Give it an honest shot and see what happens.

Shocks would play a big role. Looks like your front stays up high for quite a while...it doesnt settle. How old are your idler/pittman? Loose or tight?
