What else do I need to do to compete?

Looking to enter my first truck pull this summer at the local fair. By looking at my sig what else do I need to do in order to be able to complete in the work / stock class? I just dont want to look like an idiot and get stomped

Likely with that turbo you won't get into a work stock class unless you have the numbers reversed in your sig. Not sure what all you have done to the tranny but unless it it has upgraded TQ Converter and VB job it won't last long. I would get something more than a juice imho or at least have it upgraded to the hot.

If the Turb you have is really a 62/65/13 then you should do fine in the work stock. Most of them allow a 2.4 turbo. See what the rules are. But with solid tranny and the HOT it should do respectable. I might suggest a set of traction bar's if you have the resources. The springs alow alot of flex.
