Also, a friend who has the same setup as me, the one where we installed these setups back to back... well, he out 60 footed me, and only beat me in the 1/4 by .002 seconds. I thinks thats good considering he has a 9" and is launching hard, whereas me in the 10 bolt had to ease it out of the hole. I was beating him in the 1/8, and he beat me at higher speeds. Im blaming this on the miss.

No, never degreed the cam yet. Im thinking about doing that over the winter, but with it Im going to need another tune, in the tune of $450 that is. Thats why Im holding off for right now.
We were under the impression that degreeing the cam was not necessary, but obviously we were wrong. We'll see what happens.

Well, the cam was installed properly, just not checked if we needed to degree it.
$450 is what the guy around here charges, and he's the best. www.flp2win.com

^^ I did that once. Not quite that severe though. I only broke a couple of teeth off of the ring gear. Make sure you take your posi-unit apart and clean it good. Also, setting them up a tad on the tight side of the recommended back lash will help also. It may make a little noise, but I've seen them last longer.
Re: 12.64 @ 111.88 with the LE2 today.
This setup was set very tight. I forgot what backlash I set it to, but I know it was much tighter than what the speed shop set it up at.
And, when I set it up myself, it made absolutely no noise as well.
For the time being, Im throwing in there a Torsen w/3.73's that I bought for $90 from a friend. An then in the spring it will be time for a 9".
