Are you having an engine thrust bearing issue?

Rusty, Steve jr is gone for the weekend, I will have him pull a couple of graphs and either post them here or send them to you in the next couple of days. Not sure where you have your sensor mounted but mine looked really weird when I had the sensor mounted directly in the cooler line. Randy at RPM said it was due to senser seeing too much heat. Once I mounted it remote it looked much better. We also tried a cooler line dump valve for awhile but ended up taking it off

Lots of fun info in that graph ! Do you think it lost the wheel speed sensor signal at around 4-1/2 seconds?

I'm assuming all hell breaks loose if you leave higher than 3200?

Crazy jump in trans pressure after the gear change...interesting

That is a loose convertor !!

Yes signal from driveshaft sensor skipped a beat. Actually that was my tight stator in the converter. Air was really good in Pomona, 30lbs boost at only 16:1. Fuel Flow meter showing 10.05 GPM at the stripe at 187 psi

Even leaving at "only" 3200 it still turned the tire a little.
Wild how the belt-driven pump starts putting out instantly

Do you run that convertor to keep the MPH down or is it just happeist with that one?

230 MPH on that pass. Has gone 235.70 so no I was not trying to keep the MPH down, just the opposite.
Engine is for sale if you want to go fast

Meant no offense...
I have a few friends running TD and we sometimes get on the subject of MPH.....Since NHRA put the ET stops on we figured the TD crowd might start pumping up the MPH for show...we figure that'll just make NHRA cap that also.

that looks like pump pressure not cooler pressure?
