1.67 on stock clutch and lines with restrictor out. Stock clutch blew recently, just put in an RRE clutch and Im putting the restrictor back in to hopefully save my drivetrain from damage with the new clutch.

the stock clutch is not crappy. it was made to be the weak point in the drivetrain so you don't break transfer cases and such. stop drag racing a car that was made for turning not accelerating as fast as you can from a dead stop.

stock clutch is taking a pretty good beating cant really complain with it dying at the strip but as soon as you throw some power its way it dies pretty quick with out dropping it

I find that pretty interesting. Are you sure it wasn't just your clutch slipping (like it's supposed to)? When I took mine to the track I couln't believe I spun MY tires through first gear either. Then, talking to my friends watching they let me know (and I saw it on the video they took of me) that I didn't even squack the tires...it was just the clutch slipping becuase the track was so sticky.
