transbrake question

I say stick to SST and enjoy it.... if you must run the Heritage classes on .400, take a 2-3 inch bite after you turn the bulbs on. A lot easier than spending a ton of money for possibly the same result.....

Thanks Jim, that's probably the best way to do it. I'm putting some more pinion angle in it to improve the reaction as we speak. The only problem with S/st is I don't have any electronics and I'm a little quick. One thing nice about D/gas is I can't break out without a hell of a tail wind.

How close are you......What size front tire.....What air pressure in front....Is the frontend travel limited.....

There are a few things you can do if your close.

Eric, I've got a 4000 lb pickup, pump gas 540, turbo 400, 9" 4:30 gear, non tubbed, 11" slicks 30" Tall, 26" front tire, 35 lbs air, ladder bars, A1 shocks front, Varishocks rear.
Runs 10:70 @ 122 balls out in decent air. I've never put it on a dyno and I run 36 degs timing and shift @ 6400. Launch @ 3400 also. Goes thru the lights @ 6600-6650.
The only reason I started this thread was to find out if I was slow or my equipment was. I can't get better than a .120 on the .400 tree.
