He is probably useing a time slip from Spokane, as everyones times are faster there.

All my time slips are issued from the California highway patrol.

As much as 3 tenths.

No big deal to a CHP officer but pretty relevant when comparing to others times.

Got my truck back friday with my new trans and WOW. Apples and oranges. I love getting in and putting it right into gear and going, no more coffee brakes while it primes. I miss not being able to lug it in overdrive and smoke the cars out. It builds boost fast.

What about while the oil circulates and the engine has a chance to 'gear up' for running down the road! Different strokes for different folks. I guess.

So you have the 'check ball' left in?

My last two dyno outting I posted two back to back 500rwhp runs and only pulled 38 psi of boost. Some dynos you need NOS to really get the truck to work. Just before I put the truck on the truck I did a couple warm-up drives around 70psi area, so the truck was making decent power. Twins with a large primary is at a disadvantage over a single running a bottle, on a dyno. That same day, stock trucks, with a tune and a bottle where pulling 700rwhp.

any more info on these. it looks like the nadp will be cheaper by about 300 buck but it is going to be 4 hours more driving each way so there are almost the same price for the dtt and the nadp still havent decided what way i want to go yet

Opie, what typical boost launch pressure you launch at with your shafts? I had DTT put one in my tranny. I want to test it out I had them put in one of your shafts at the time of the build. I have a 2000 rpm stall, and 3.55 gears. 33in tires. Thanks buddy

My shafts had nothing to do with my boost pressure. What boost gave the best 60’s are what determined that.
Which shaft was put in and when?
Stall changes with hp but anyways…
I left with 24-28 psi of boost to get 60’ into the high 1.50’s on 33” tires. All the shafts have been continuously updated over the years. If you have an input shaft I would recommend you to upgrade to a 4 hole style. Since my four hole styles conception in May 2006 until today not one failure. (Knock on wood.)

I was told it was the biggest and tuffest shaft you carried. I didn't care to much at the time. I want to run the truck at the track this year and wanted to make sure that I don't break something. I've done a few 25psi launches, but traction is quite limited and my tires just lite up.

When was this? I quit doing business with DTT since 06. So what parts of mine are in your transmission?
