Yep it kinda hooked after i installed an original ol smokey fuel pin on sunday, enough to rip all the wheel studs off the passenger side rear wheel

Didn't do much damage, but I'm defiantly going to order the 3" nhra wheel studs

I was wondering how long they would last. I broke a stock front stud changing tires.

Just been driving it as weather allows yesterday I seen 52-53 pounds of boost on a low second gear to third gear stomp with egts 12-1300 and she hauls the mail boy. gotta get another head, tranny, rear axles and spool built so it won't shatter something. I'm sure with slicks and 4:10s she'd pull wheels. It turns alot of heads though just driving around town getting parts for the ice race car we built last week

I'd stick with 3.55's personally. I finally got a rough estimate on what mine weighs. It should be around 4300 pounds.

I've got 3.55's now and going to 3.07 to get more topend. Mine pulls hard to 60 then it's at the top of it's rpm range the way it is setup and just doesn't have the power in OD to keep pulling hard. I've kept mine pretty much stock though working out other bugs in it.
