I've decided to quit ******* with it until I get some safety equipment, and a good engine in the truck. The power is there for lower 9's but I'm afraid of what will happen if it kicks the rods up top. Also don't like the way these bias slicks feel on the front at high speeds.

I can push it past 5K if I want to but anything past 4200 just slows 60' or spins.

Man I love seeing how far a stock long block will go !
