I drove on a broken piston for a year and a half. It'll spray oil and be down on power, but you can still drive it. Depending on where it broke, your cylinder walls might be fine too.
What was your race weight? Your spinning might be pinion angle related. What angle did you wind up with? I thinkg a little preload on those long bars will go a long way.

im curious what your 1/8 time was too

Here's the full slip.
60'----- 2.100
330'-----5.382
1/8------8.012
Mph------91.89
1000'----10.186
1/4------12.511
Mph------110.87
When its back together, a LOT more emphasis will be placed on getting the truck to 60' better. This was its first real run on 28" GOOD slicks too, I'm sure I'm a lot of the error too. I need just as much practice as the truck does.

Yep, just 6psi and pump gas, no meth, no nitrous.... If I had mixed the 110 in there maybe she would have lived going lean....
Like I said, the emphasis will be on the 60' this time back together. The power will be there (and then some) to run DEEP into the 11s and maybe faster. I have no doubt it would have gone 11s that pass or the next. The 60' just kicked the e/t in the ***.
I'm almost tempted to throw a running 5.3 in it just to see how fast I can go with it I doubt ill ever find one thatll hold up under the punishment this one took. this motor will be missed.

Well I don't think it was the way the suspension was setup that caused it to spin... The track was just slick as hell... And I honestly think the car ahead of me dripped some crap... No excuses though. Once its back together ill see about adjustments. I had them built with opposite threaded rod ends so I can adjust the length/preload. I just ran them as is just to see... I don't think I got near enough heat in the slicks either.
