Smokin' Hot Hooker- Runnin like crap and still takes it to the fence
Finally got a hook in that didnt break the front end, bounce uncontrolably and got it off the line. I tried pullin Thursday night only to have it running so bad it didnt have the power to pull past 30'. It ran much the same way at Alexandria but I just got ****** at it and layed it on the rev limiter till I got the charger lit then it was on. Still chasing a gremlin. Let's stay PG please.
2nd place was 40' behind, let out before I took down the fence. This was a gear down due to decreased power then where I usually run.

nice run Bean!
I remember a few weeks ago that you were having trouble getting that truck started... I guess you got it running, but still chasing gremlins.
what gremlins are you chasing? care to share with us?
again, good run

Would have to check the recall on the tach but probly 4200rpm.
If you listen to me trying to come off the line it is missing horribly and has no power, wont do anything till I can get a load on it and get boost up then it on like donkey kong.
After the run it was blowing bad blow by and tranny is makin noise, but hey I won 200.00 lol.

You got the right motor now you just need the right chassis! Just kidding, nice pull. What are you running for rail pressure? And what are you seeing for exhaust temps?

On the street egt's dont get over about 1450.00, but its not fueling as good as it should be.
Rail pressure I dont know, 25k+ I would say but have not checked it in a long time.
