SS3600 results are in! To parallel the SS4000 results are in thread I thought I'd start one for my new SS3600 and F13 cam.
1st run ever with converter - 1.71 60' 11.95 @ 114
2nd run on hot lap - 1.69 60' 11.92 @ 114
Not bad for 275/40/17 Nitto DRs
Got exactly what I was hoping for. Hit 11's with my daily driver, grocery getter, droppin my daughter off at day care, 9 year old, 90k mile Camaro
.
This converter is very well mannered around town, highly recommended!
:Cheers:

Or BFGs.
When I had 3.73s with the SS3600, I revved up to about 1800 and stabbed it. 1.62s with ease. 1.52 on a 100 shot.
Then I changed to 3.50 gears in a Moser 9" and Mickey Thompsons. To help it get off he line better, 2300rpms seems to work. I pulled a 1.45 with a 125 shot.
Do you have LCA relocation brackets? They will help out a lot!

Suspension is stock. Car is full weight. Daily driver.
This was my first time to the track with a converter. I'd only been driving it a week. Never launched it. I goto the track maybe once a year. I'm pleased so far and I'll improve. Thanks for the advice.

when you say well mannered around town could you elaborate?
I was thinking of doing a 2800-3200 stall, but I'm starting to get suckered in looking into the 3600 range and it seems most people don't have any complaints.
I'm talking serious daily driver material here...lots of in town (think small town) stop and go traffic. What are your thoughts on mpg and general annoyance?

My daily drive to work is 2 lights, highway, 2 lights so I was less concerned about the 3600. But I have also driven it in stop and go and I can tell you its noticeable, but not that annoying at all. It all depends on how fast you want to get going from a stop. If you just give it a little gas it will barely climb over 1500 as it climbs up to 40 mph. If you need to get going a little bit faster it will climb to 2500, get a little louder and get you to 40mph faster. Then it will lock up at 48mph. The Yank 3600 is proven by soo many on here. I think you'll be dissapointed if you go any lower. Heck some people are daily driving the 4000's now.
