I don't think 2.0's is going to get you to the mid 12's anytime soon. 1.83 60' in 05_LLY's wife's truck is a 12.8 1/4 @ around 7300# Cummin Get Some 60' was a 1.8 on a 12.90 in the 1/4 NV5600 truck.
When you get to the 12.1's then you can call the Chevy out. Build it, do it, and then talk about it.
Mines a G56, Ryan.
with a 2.6 60' I'm at 13.5. shaving .6 off my 60 would translate more then 12.9 in the 1/4 would it not? I'll be in the power earlier with more track right?
heck, I went from a 6.9 330' to a 6.0 330 with just figuring out part of the launch technique.
If a 1.8 is possible based on Cummin Get Some's 60'. Then a 12.5 is possible with what ever Cummin Get Some does to get moving. I'm running what 6mph faster in the traps then he is. I have more power, just lack the technique right now. I'll figure it out.
Cummin Get Some, what gear and tire size you running?
On my 12.9 run I had 285s on it I ran a 13.4 with my 35/13.50/18s I don't really think the smaller tires helped much though doesn't seem any faster on the street with smaller tires...just spins more. 3rd gear launches. I think my MPH was low because I smacked the rev limiter, 4100 RPM or so, in 5th about 100' from the finish line.
There's enough "atta boy threads" around here... It's interesting to debate what if's and how to's.. I've got pointers that I"ll take to the track from this thread. And I've provided data that argues what I could do with the new pointers.
Frankly, you're derailing this thread, I'm not.
But this is an "atta bot thread"... Caleb broke the record for the fastest manual diesel truck, this is the thread for people to comment on and congratulate him. I agree with Ryan that if you'll are gonna argue and bicker take it to a different thread...not this one!
By the way "ATTA BOY CALEB!":clap:
