launching

had a few questions about launching and such.
1)hold brake pedal apply throttle and let off pedal and hammer it?
2)how much boost to launch with I have some mods but no input shafts yet?
3)Egt mine climb fast is it a problem if only going 1/4 mile?
4)Egt if it gets to 1400 deg how long can it stay there before trouble
I have a boat and some rolling hills that will get it hot?
5)when running on the dyno i ran 4th gear (overdrive) and does the dyno take into account for the lower gear ratio (numerically) of the overdrive gear or should it be done in 3rd 1:1 ratio with the converter locked?

Sorry for the long post and battery of questions but i am a little green when it comes to diesel racing. thanks for your help.
