I'll let you know how mine turns out when I get all sorted out.
I agree. My best 60 is around the1.94-5 area. And thats with slicks @ 11
psi, a beefier clutch, stiffer springs, trac bars, headers, etc, etc. and a
dump at 4500. Its enough to get the bed to hit the back of the cab, but NOT
pull wheels.

removed), stiffened rear springs, M/T 28x8.5 slicks
