Don't tune for temps, use this guide and you will safely push the engine to it's max potential.

RE: savage top speed?
I have to ask, you drove off again without resetting your iphone. How did you capture your 51.2mph screen shot? Oh wait you had to edit the video.
My advice is get a clear shot of the number in question. Your last video does not show anything other than a blurry number. If you can get a clear shot.
Dont get me wrong your truck hauls esp for an old one, but the weight of it plays a major role. Im at 12lbs reaching 56, your at 9lbs. It just makes me wonder if my secret I hold is holding me back[&o]

Check your motor plate for cracks. Also check the bearings on the CB. Check the shaft the spur sits on, its common that they get bent. ALso check for any loose or missing screws all over the truck

Thats is normal, mine does it too on 2 of my savages.
I wonder if your tvps are bent, or you have a missing screw somewhere. You should give the truck a very good look over

I have thought about running rwd but havent tested it for high speed runs. I have ran rwd plenty of times and its much harder to control off the line.

RE: savage top speed?
What kind of distance does it take you to reach 50?
What I mean is for me I can reach 56mph in roughly 175ft or less. How long would you say it takes you?
