Default Fuddle 3600 questions

Alright guys here is the story, I just bought another F-body this time a 2000 SS and I love it. It came with a fuddle 3600, and has been tuned for the converter. off the line this car is awesome, i cant keep traction, however on the roll it sucks. Not sure if its the converter or something else, but when I go WOT the car downshifts but hits the rev limiter and doesnt accelerate worth a crap. I got waxed by a vette today on the interstate. Not cool. Could something be wrong or is it the nature of the beast with the converter?

Hitting the rev limiter cuts fuel and so as you would expect it wont accelerate worth a crap. Fix the WOT kick-down problem by re-tuning the WOT shift points and possibly beefing up the tranny and then see how it performs. Is the tranny stock? A shift kit will help control that...

Got it. As far as I know the tranny is stock, any recomendations for a particular shift kit? Thanks for the help.

I retuned the WOT shift points and it seemed to help a little, I think I will try a shift kit to help control it a little bit. Thanks for the help guys.
