Full tube chassis chevy 2 weighs 3000lbs? What kind of tranny do you have in it. If i missed it and you said it earlier and its an auto what stall do you have and do you use a tranny break? What rpm's are you leaving at. drag radials or slicks? if so what size. are you going to set up your car for mainly 1/8 or 1/4?

The tranny is a turbo 400 with a brake. i leave the line at 3800, and it is a 5000 stall 8inch converter. i think that may be another one of my problems. it has 13x33x15 inch slicks. I am mainly trying to get it to run decent times at sunshine cause it is so close. once they close, then i will set it up for mainly 1/4. and yes, it weighs 2800 without me in it, and im close to 240.

the rear is a 9inch with the strange nodular center section. strange 35 spline axles, and i had the housing rein forced. I also had areospace disk brakes put all the way around it. i actually thought about going to take some ore pics to put up on here since i havent yet.

sorry i didnt reply to this sooner. i didnt see it. I have to say that as it sits right now running, i would have probably just over 5000 in it. but buying good parts is well worth it. I have learned my lesson with stock shit.
