View Full Version : Sled puller makes first 1/8 pass ever @ schieds
This was the first time we ran our sled pulling truck at the strip and with the tunning we had for sled pulling where pretty pleased with the passes that it made
Our E/T wasnt that good but the trap speed I thought was pretty good
I believe the best pass was 7.81 @ 93.7 mph we backed the Mph later on with an even 94. We dont plan on draging this truck but it was fun to make a few passes on it.

Welcome to the site! :Handshake:
That's a pretty fast 1/8th for a truck not set up to race! :thumb:

Would of been nice if we had a drag tune for the truck instead of the sled one.

Buddy said the truck laid down in third then took off like mad again in fourth. Just something in the sled pull tuning.
Thanks for the Video Josh. It was nice to finally put a face to the moderator that loves to stir the pot.
It definetly needs some adjusments in the tunning that is for sure.
The list of things that we have done
33x12.5R16 sts's
EDP traction bars, pulling hitch and all sheilds.
EDP Fully built motor running close to stock compression
EDP Custom ported heads
Custom built 2.95 single charger to big to fit in stock location
DDP injectors with more then enough fuel
Modded CP3's
Fass Lift pumps
SoCal sled puller came
R&R rods
Mahle pistons for a 20 over hole
duramaxdirveshaft.com drive shaft
Elocker upfront
speerco intercooler out front.
this pass was made using PPE hot +2 ET hand held tuner No EFI live at this time.
We dont plan on drag racing it any more then we did. It was built to pull. We plan on making a few hooks this weekend and will keep you guys posted on how she comes along.
Thanks again for all the comments
