first off you are stalling the converter to 3000 which these cars done like no matter the converter. try flashing the converter (which means if you dont know almost off of idle. Around 900-1200rpm to get the drivetrain slack out). Your sixty foot is terrible which goes hand in hand with you brake stalling it to 3000. Get some better tires and a stepper gear 3.73 with that size cam it needs it.

Like said above try flashing the converter.. I have full exhaust/Lid/SS4000/273 gear/Free mods and SI. My best time is a 7.53@89.98 in the 1/8. I flashed the converter every pass.

Same here. My best results are by launching at 1500. I tried going higher and it feels like a more aggressive launch but didn't translate to better 60ft times in the end hurting et. You just gotta play with it and see what works.
