Default What's up fellows.. 60' problems.

Little run down. Truck has been 1.74 before with cheap 3200 circle d converter and stock suspension with drs. Added caltrac,slicks,shocks and 100 shot best 60' 1.76 to date. Swapped to the 80e with 3800 9.5 added pinion shims best 60' 1.81 n/a, 1.80 on spray. Doesn't seem to spinning since the pinion angle shims. Haven't ran in cooler weather yet, but just wondering if this could be something in the tune holding it back. I've even sprayed a 150 with no change in 60' times. I need y'all's .02

Even though it's a 3800 stall, you are working with a lot higher 1st gear of the 80e. Although I do believe the 60' should be lower, 80s eat up 60'
