Default 20-100 in my LT1; powershifting every gear

I'd say it runs alright at this altitude and with only 3.42s...

Thanks!

I actually like how the LT1 Camaros and Firebird look better than the LS1 cars; I'd take an LT1 WS6 or Firehawk over an LS1 car in a heartbeat.

you come of the clutch way to slow. the shift action itself is decent though

I agree that you come off the clutch way to slow, either that or its not engaging. Nice rowing though.

Thanks for the comments and the criticism.

I'm suprised the clutch in my car has lasted as long as it has -- it's the original clutch and has 103k on it. Granted, it engages at the very top of the pedal, but it doesn't slip at all. The high engagement actually probably is affecting my shifts a bit. I can think back to around 70k or so when it would grab sooner and I remember being able to shift it faster then. Granted, I did miss a gear or two back then too, now it's almost impossible to miss a gear since the engagement is so high and I'm used to having to push it atleast 1/2 way.

I need to get motivated though... there's a SPEC stage 3 in my toolbox at work.

powershifting a car w/ a spec 3 and a 4.10 gear is a blast... i suggest you get moving on that clutch and get a gear. holy crap is that fun!
