Have to agree on the stall. Turbo is not going to light in that high of gear with the low stall. So, pull one gear down or get the convertor. If you have the setup to hit 25+MPH you will do well. Momentum is huge at the top of the track.

In 2 wd if i just stomp on it from a stop it starts spooling in 2nd and when it shifts to third it just burns the rears off. I love the way it drives on the street with the low stall, but i think im just taking it off the street and just pulling with it. Ill call Dave G. and see what we can arrange for me.
you are trying to drive this truck like a gas burner, not enough experience with the diesel engine! go slower and let off slower!!!!
