If your tranny or converter is not slipping, then most likely will not improve ET much, if at all. What it will do is allow more HP to be added for faster times.

From the looks of the vid it was a 4 wheel drive pass. Almost everone drag races in 4 wheel drive. If you do not you just smoke your tires like crazy.

I know a lot of you guys race in 4HI but I am still convinced that with a sticky enough tire, and proper suspension setup, running in 2WD will give you a higher MPH and lower ET. The fastest diesels in the world are, you guessed it, 2WD !!!

When You Take Out The Torsion Bar Bolts You Lose The Allignment Is That A Problem At The Other End Of The Track At 100mph? Someone On Here Said To Do That To Get The Front To Hook Up Because I Still Spin In 4 Wheel!!

Those trucks and railes are runnin big slicks. You can not fit a tire that big in a stock wheel well. The fastes diesels you are talking about are dragsers. If the back of your truck is not tubbed you need 4x4 to get it to hook.

Yes 4x4 launch. I lower the T-bars until they are level.
