Thanks Guys, Looks like I will be going with Bob with ACD as I have purchased products from him and was always helpful.

As far as shifting on time on the stop at what time do you shift?? I am thinking I should be on the stop for 3 seconds or so..

Billy, #1Stop has an ad for it in the last Nat Dragster,in Joanies race shop pages....It's not on their website.
$750 I think. I tried calling them this week ,but kept getting a busy signal, so I'll wait to order one after the New Year.

Shifting on time depends on a lot of factors, launch rpm ,how hard the car hits , how soon you go on the stop , cruise rpm, ect.
Best to start .5 sec after you go on the stop, and experiment going up or down from there.
