I have a good buddy who has been taking his truck to the 1/4 drag strip a few times lately. The truck is an extended cab long bed 4x4, 95 Model with an automatic. The truck has a set of 5x0.012's, 20* of timing and a set of small twins. Ht3b and S300G I believe. The truck has been tuned very well and makes a little over 600hp. (607 to be exact) Truck has a fully billett Suncoast unit, and can lock up in 1st. It does have some Tuff country trac bars and has a leveleling kit upfront, which consist of the springs, not spacers. Wheels and tire are aluminum 16x10's with 285x75x16 Terra Grapplers.
The truck has been :
12.86 at 105.8mph with a 2.20 60ft Time
12.79 at 106.4mph with a 2.09 60ft Time
The truck spins the front end hard. I think this is causing the poor 60's. What is the best way to keep the front end planted to try and pull some decent 60's.
I have been thinking going with a 1/2ton Coil up front and Clamping the overloads in the back.
Is there anything else to try?
What kind of air pressures should we try?
I believe with a better sixty it could go 12.50's, what do you guys think?
