Trying to leave on the 3rd light, but I jump it. So, just let one of the light thingies light up when staging?

Also, the MT's would better suit me than the M&H'S?
Once your light the pre-stage bulbs (top two), then stop and slowly roll forward until the stage bulbs (bottom pair) flicker on. That is shallow. Rolling in a inch or 2 (or 3) more is getting deeper.



Real quick, What size rim best fits the MT ET street 275/40/17? Also with the M&H 325/45/17's...

I'm gonna get some 18x9/18x10 Bullitts for the street, and need something for outback for the track. What wheel?
17x9 will work for both of them. You can get the 275's on an 8" wheel, but not the 325s.



Going for the QUAD post....

Also, on the Converters what do yall think about a 3200 Stall on the street. I'll be putting on average about 50 miles a day on my car starting in Aug, I drive in a small town around town a bit, occacional Ftworth/Dallas traffic, some highway here and there. 2800, 3000, 3200........which one could be a possibility....
IMO, 3000-3200 would be good for street/strip use.

You think It will look, as well as perform well on an 8" rim for the ET Streets? Or should I just go for some 17x9's....

There are lots of guys running the ET street bias tires on 17x8's. I always had my DRs on 17x9s.

I'll probably go with some chrome 17x9's to accommodate the 18x9's up front. So at least it won't look too goofy when swapping out the 18x10's in the back. Does someone have some info on some 17x9/17x10 Deep Dish Chrome Bullitts....I'll take them instead of 18's

I just got done talking with some guys up at HPP. They recommended about a 3000 Stall on the converter with my 4.10's.

Don, What stall are you running? I know I'm N/A and plan on staying but I don't want a wussy stall, I want something thats gonna make a dramatic difference but be drivable on a daily basis...

Mine is supposed to be a 3000 stall, but it's fugged up. When I replace it, I'll go with a 3000 or 3200.

Yup, the guys up at HPP said that through an AUTO with 4.10's that 3000 would be good, but there truly isn't that much of a difference going with 3200. I'ma call up PI and see what they say. Hell, yall wanna go for a group buy and see about getting a good deal on these? Price is suppost to range somewhere between 7-800 bucks. It also only takes a week to get it together then it's shipped out. I bet Joe can get some sweet deals on PI as well. I need to talk to him a bit.

Damn, your having a blast!! I was actually gonna see if ya might wanna help me with some headers possibly...

Though, I'm calling Wade up at HPP right now to see what I can work out...

If I am around when you get them I don't mind helping.

Tell Wade to get his ass on the board and check his PMs. Also tell him to tell Manny to check his email.

I have the PI 3000 stall 3 clutch converter and it works great you will not regret it. It does hit hard on lock up. Around town it is no problem feels almost like driving a clutch car. It is awesome.

I miss Kennedale, I used to go there when I lived in Fort Worth. Congrats on your times and now you're officially hooked. Let the withdrawal symptoms begin....
