4600 is about right for a 4x4. I think most of the 4x2 CC guys said they
weighed 4000-4100 pounds. The reading does seem really low, though. Don't
forget that the power runs through a transfer case, even not engaged, that
makes extra friction. Still it doesn't sound right. Maybe 140 - 160
stock. My drag times indicated I was making 180ish on my MP SBEC and K&N
FIPK. I have a 5.2 CC auto 2wd. If you had wheelspin that will mess up
the reading, too.
