My motor never liked a lot of timing either. I think 23 degrees was all I could get on 93 pump gas.

Why such a big slick? Your just blowing that gear right out that truck. Truck looks good.

^It's what my buddy gave to me. They're 30x9s. If I ever buy Bogarts, I'm going to run a 28" tire. Thanks Jason!

no problem man. Sometimes you just run what you have to work with. Thats why I raced a crew cab for so long, its what I had.

Well without these slicks you let me use, I wouldn't be able to run with a damn. This thing spins at any speed under 55 on skreet tires lol. Thanks again buddy. Next is Cal-Tracs and Bogarts.

That is a 12.30 to 12.40 range..excellent. You should find a 28" slick and it would be a 12.00 truck.

That is interesting. ive never seen an LS motor run timing that low.

OP, when are you going to get out to the 1/4?

I hope so gnd111. I'm not planning on the 1/4 just yet. I'd really prefer suspension and probably more importantly a drive shaft before going all out in the quarter. After that, I have a 125 shot of Orange juice for it.

I had the truck commanding around 19 deg, just being super conservative on it since this was the first time running it ***** to the wall.
Looking at the log it was getting between 19-23 degrees WOT around 5700-900 RPM. I shifted it at 5900, I figure once all the small tuning issues get worked out I'll get more aggressive with the timing and hopefully it'll hook next time!!!
