Duramax race van project

That van is a little nicer than mine.
Do you remember what kind of times it was running? Looks like he has a larger than stock exhaust.
He was slow, but very consistent. I think he won brackets when I was there last summer.
Any update on this thing? It's been a while since I've seen or heard any mention of it. Just curious. :thumb:
There hasn't really been much to update. We just got the transmission back in it after having the stall speed lowered on the converter. We're going to try to get it out to the track this weekend.
That's the plan. I'm hoping to have it at a 1/4 mile track on Saturday to see how it does.
We got it back out to a 1/4 mile track last night. It finally ran the way I felt it was capable of. Here's a breakdown of the best run of the night.
60': 1.736
330':4.817
1/8: 7.408
MPH: 94.51
1000':9.660
1/4: 11.579
MPH: 115.67

Hell yeah Josh. Was the higher stall speed causing it to blow the tires off on the launch before???
No, it just wasn't efficient and was having trouble locking because the slip speed was so high.
Here's a video of the pass. Sorry for the crappy quality. It's all I have.
