The whole time the transmission was not shifting right. the 1/2 would hang and hit the limiter, the 2/3 was spot on. So I switched to an older tune and got this

60 ft: 1.534

after this run, the truck had a slight miss, so i pulled the 2 suspect plugs and they still looked good. i buttoned it up and decided to give it one more try
10:42pm
60 ft: 1.516

1/4: 10.768@ 125.46
Both of the last runs the 1/2 got stuck in the rev limiter and on the last run, the 2/3 also hit the rev limiter and about the 1000 ft mark. sputtered badly, You can see that in the MPH drop off. Well, I got back to the trailer and turned the truck off. When i restarted it, it still had the sputter and was blowing steam from the tail and the passenger side (one with the bad head) didnt sound right Got it back to the shop, started it to get off the trailer and put my hand in front of the exhaust and got misted with coolant. probably lifted a head. no big deal really. I already knew this was the motors last night of racing, this just makes sure i know that LOL. Im not exactly sure whats going on with the transmission, BUT I plan on calling BTS and might be sending the unit back to him. It has always run to hot 190-200 and has never seemed to shift properly. We redid the tune and input the roll out figures from hoosier and it changed nothing, then i loaded a tune that had an early 2/3 shift, and it hit the rev limiter hard on the 2/3. Oh and by this time, The Icey res was getting overtaken by heat. Water wasnt hot, but it wasnt anywhere near as cold when i gave it a 40 minute cool down. The last 2 runs were easily low 10 sec passes. 10.73 and hitting the limmter and hanging 2 shifts. From the borascope, looks like the top ring is visible, but that cylinder still has 150# compression
