Tyler, that was a great run, but I'm interested in the tire size and type of tire you were running with the 4.56 gears?
Fantastic horsepower and torque readings on that dyno video.
Great Job!

Tyler,
See if you can beg, borrow or steal a set of 28 x 10.5 with a soft compound. With the 4:56 gears, you really need the larger footprint (contact patch) of a taller tire. This should help the bite and the 60' times.
Keep trying, I think you're on to something!
