    Well I got my goal, went to the track last night. Launched at 11psi and cut a 1.56 60' , seemed to hold and not spin. Hit a peak of 18psi on the pull. But I was banging on the rev limiter top of 3rd at the end of the track. Track officials made a trip by me in the pits and gave me a warning for being to fast w/o a cage.

    So I made some adjustments in the tune, raised the rpm shift point of the 2-3, and raised the rev limiter a couple hundred to try and keep it off the rev limiter. Also bumped peak boost to 20-21psi. Unfortunately, my next pass the track didn't hold the launch and I spun. Got out of it, got back into it to the 1/8th then coasted to the 1/4, still ran a 14 sec lol. Then my fourth and final pass, I launched at 11 psi again and my yukon duragrip blew apart . Specifically the two smaller spiders gears broken in half.

    Shock loaded the drive train, so I'm gonna pull the trans as well and have it gone through for inspection. Car has 4.10s in it, they appear to have survived, but I have a set of 3.55's on the shelf I've been meaning to put in. Guess now is a good time. But I need to decide what direction to go for a new carrier.

    Last time at the track the scales showed 4700 lbs. Scales weren't working last night.

    275-60/15 et/ss 18psi

    10 sec 1/4 mile and 600+ rwhp was my goal for this car in the begining. I think I've achieved my goals. Now to fix it, and turn it down and enjoy it.

    I’d say at least closer to 43.0 pounds than 4.30...

    Something had to be done with the gears, shattered secondary timing gears, bent Manley S.S. Valves, and whatever else I had laying around from the long journey that got me here.

    I think I've decided to replace the duragrip with a tru-Trac.

    I've used an OEM 31-spline Trac Loc and OEM 31 spline axles on both of my S/C'd Marauders with great success. It's a cheap and reliable alternative. You can usually find used 05 and up complete axle assemblies for $200.
    You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference

    I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

    My shafts are already 31 spline chromo. I want to get away from spider gears. Considering I shattered these launching at 11 psi with drag radials. Looking around and talking with alot of guys in similar power cars, alot have had great results with the true Trac.

    I’ve also heard good things about the Trutrac. Stop making so much power and you won’t blow things up

    Update, I purchased FRP 3.55's to replace the 4.10s. And A tru-trac to replace the duragrip. I've nothing but trouble trying to get the gears installed and set up correctly. Was doing it at home on jackstands, and with my wrecked back it was hell. I need to get the car out of the garage one way or another. So I just tossed them in sloppy after several hrs of messing around with them, to get it to move. That was a two weeks or so ago.

    Yesterday I trailed it to a buddies who has a hoist to reset the gears, still, after hrs cannot get a good pattern. Ended up calling it a day yesterday after my back started to flare up. Can only take that carrier in and out so many times. Try again Friday, but have a buddy coming by who sets gears for a living. I've set up way more then my share over the years, idk whats going on with this setup. The FRP 4.10s damn near dropped in perfect first try.

    I also pulled the 4l80 out and had it gone through to make sure there was no collateral damage from the locker failure (shock load), we found nothing damaged. That was a relief.

    Don't have a lot of winter plans for the car, probably change up the exhaust again. Run it out the back to mimic stock, and replace the boost valve with a electric cutout instead. Most my attention will be out towards the jeep this winter.

    I did pick up a new daily driver/commuter car ( I hate driving my truck in the salt). Drove from Grand Rapids MI to Cincinnati OH and bout a 2004 Town Car ultimate with 70K on it. Was looking for a dark blue ext and black interior but those are apparently like unicorns. Spent two months looking and only found two and both weren't in the best of shape. Settled for a silver birch ext and black interior

    I too had a heck of a time getting a good pattern. It was my first attempt at gears. Did another buddies Marauder after that and it was perfect on the first try.
