Default 4.8 is getting better!!! lol

i finally got back out to the track, wanted to see where she stands before i run with slicks and nitrous.... i ran a 9.03 at 77 with some traction issues and a very bad trans tune with jacked up shift points... this was with it dropped down to 3 from d .... i didnt get a time on the pass i made when i walked it through the gears, i feel it was faster ... atleast it spun way more off the line and pulled harder lol ... that is all

I have my full setup in the garage minus the remote bottle opener I want ... probably gonna run 150 shot for now ... I bet I could get mid 13 out of this thing before spray with my 26 tall slicks and my trans tuned for that stall I have now ... There are a lot of 4.8 haters out there, and that's why I got one lol.... I bet it runs mid to low 12 with that 150 shot ... The truck I based mine off was an 07 that ran 12.6 with 150 shot
