No matter what gear you are in at a dead stop foot on brake, you will see the same boost. Gear selection will have no affect on t/c stall. If using an auto. always use first the harder you can lauch and get moving the better the 60ft. time will be.

I ran a pair of 14.33 s 1/4 mile runs with my SCMT on High Performance tune. The truck ran 16.0 s stock.

125MPH and 65-90mph through the turns???

Start making your list fellas. We are going to have a parts truck to pick through pretty soon.

Whats a transfer case after 1 engine and two transmissions?

In all honesty, it has handled the abuse very well. It theortically should have self-destructed a long time ago.
