Nope my dual fuelers are in my closet still lol. That run was stock turbo with 45 over nozzles and a sportsman cp3, with rail dropping to 18k. The truck is stripped it's def under 6k pounds, but not sure where exactly that's definitely helping.
I had run a 12.9 previously and was hoping to knock off a tenth or 2, killed the 60 foot compared to previous runs and got my 12.3 slip.
That's a really strong time for shifting. Do you do 2nd 4th and 6th?

If you count it as all 6 gears even the low first, it's a 3rd gear launch at 4200 rpm. Then I don't lift the throttle I just stab the clutch when I shift and hit all remaining gears. Crosses the line in 6th over 4k rpms I believe. Id love to do 3:42 gears.

Lol its seriously like it's made for it with the rubber bushing in the shifter deleted it doesn't scuff or ever grind on me. Not yet anyway lol
It really is very impressive, I'd love to see an in the cab video showing both the shifting and clutch work as well as a video showing the gauges and windshield view.
Does it consistently shift well, or maybe I should ask do you ever miss a shift? It sounds like it's very consistent as far as shifting goes. I love to hear about someone doing what you're doing in a different way than everyone else. Congrats on taking a different approach at this and making it work so well! :thumb:

With a short throw I missed gears all the time even with a 28 oz waited knob. Went to a stock shifter again and welded the rubber bushing up and it's is super smooth and consistent. I have an in cab video don't show the pedals but you can see the tach spike up in the high 4k rpm range. I def need a rev limiter. It's very fun to race this thing.
Interesting, I'll bet you didn't expect it to turn out that way regarding the shifter. Yes, I can see how much fun it would be, nothing like rowing through the gears :thumb:
Please keep us informed, I love reading your posts. There's just not many manual trans equipped duramax powered drag racers out there, especially ones that run as quick as yours!

I agree, and I honestly didn't expect anywhere near a 12.3. I definitely was set on a short throw and it was just junk. I think shaving 3 tenths should be doable next year considering the handicaps I have right now with suspension and rail pressure.
The run I have is a slow 60 but still banged out the gears, maybe I'll just come over and we can upload it on your computer straight from my gopro.
The pulse was set just north of 3k for the stock injectors, and I slapped on the 45s and haven't retuned yet
