I am thinking of doint a notch for a 5 inch drop and I dont know if I need to screw with the sturctural parts of the truck b/c I am going to spray an already 390 hp 440 tq motor. Is there anyone else here with a notch and alot of hp?

 

nope... sorry dock.. 5" Drop? wow... maybe it will hoook!

 

dropped trucks and traction don't get along very well. i lost the ability to spray a 100 shot out of the hole when i dropped my truck

 

oh really? i didnt know that.

 

You won't have a problem. Go for it.

 

yeah launcing on a flip kit definately sux even with good street tires and a stock trans

but you can always fix that with properly set up traction bars or cal tracs

 

I'm making over 500 to the tires w/ a 4/6 DJM drop, so the frame has their bolt in notch. I've cut a best short time of 1.73 on 275/55-16" drag radials w/ it lowered and Cal Tracs, so it's possible to still get a lowered truck to hook. I don't know if it would hook even better at stock height, but it might since you'd get better weight transfer.

 

not to be a smart *** but you are not coming off the line with all 500 horses
you are spraying a little out

 

How far out can you spray it and still cut a 1.7-1.8 short time? I'm not hitting it dead off the line, but I'm not exactly hitting it in 2nd gear either.

 

Yea, I would never try to spray out of the hole...this is an untested combo. I had traction issues befor the n20. I will be using a button to start with spraying 10 to 20 ft out.
