So im switching the car from M6 to A3, Ran a best of 10.48 @ 130 with the m6. wondering if i can make it through with a 28" ET Drag, TH400 & 5000 Converter. I know it will drop MPH by switching but it should get faster 60'ft's. just wondering it i can make it through before hittin 7200 rpm

in 3rd gear you will only be able to hit 132mph if you rev to 7200

Prob is there, there is converter slip, if it was a perfect world with no slipping loss he could do it, but with that gear, and prob 10% slip he is going to be hitting the limiter at around 118-120

that is true i forgot about that.

im an m6 guy, so im not familiar with autos but did the 400 ever come with a lockup verter?

Meaning if he plans on 120-130 trap speeds to put a 3.73-4.10 gear, if 4.10 he would be hitting in the mid 120's

Most people I have seen going 10's, 9's, and even 8's run a 28" tall tire. I have never exp with almost 30" tall meat *****
