I was really hoping to get away from that 1-2 shift but its just not going to happen.
That sucks. Have you change gearing in the rearend?

No But I dont think you would want to go much shorter because then you would have to shift once more at the top of the 1/4 mile. I just wish 1st gear was a little taller. Maybe with a beefy clutch? Even then thats alot of heat from slipping it that much.

I guess I could experiment with going taller. I just know next to nothing about working on differentials. lol

I know Mr.Squeeze swears by it.

I agree 1st gear is completely useless now. I have trouble shifting fast enough 1-2.

I came across this last year. Not sure if it would help us or not.
