Just finished reading through the entire thread. I have to say, I'm very impressed with your skills in design and fabrication. This truck is truly one of a kind, I can't wait to see it finished.
12.16! New best, and there's still more there.. I let off completely at 1000 foot attempting to not "break out". Still broke out. I vice gripped the TV cable before this run to try to get it to shift closer to where I want, still not perfect but definitely an improvement. I can feel my single disc converter starting to slip though.
Sorry that the video is dark and a little blurry.

Can you guys see the Instagram video without having to log in or anything? Like I was saying, still trying to get used to that and am wondering if I should just post videos on youtube too?...
Another video that I took. I had to set it up a little far away, but you can watch the spring gate move in this video. I was surprised to see maybe on 3/8" of movement with a total of 90psi drive pressure.
The WillysTowRig pulled a 11.83 at the street legal drags last night! We ran with a 11.90 dial and kept within .02 of it all night. We did break out on this run but made it to the next round since the other guy red-lighted. I think the willys had him a little worried at the line. Lol
In-cab video of the 11.83 pass. I know I am shifting a little late out of 1st, you can see the boost drop off right before the shift. Shift to 3rd seems like it might be a TAD late? But I don't see the boost drop. And I feel like 4th might be a little early, but maybe not? On top of that, I tested my intercooler pump the other day and it only flows about 6gpm, so I ordered a Rule 3800; and in overdrive specifically I can see about a 200-300rpm flare/slip when I get on it on the freeway. I feel like I still have 1 or 2 tenths that I could pick up...
