Best thing to do is log the runs and look at them.

Shifting is around 6400-6700, was hoping to lower it some to keep in the rpm range. Haven't looked closely at the logs yet to determine, with the 28" it was around 6700 crossing the finish line. My next move is to have Circle D tighten up the converter a little.

Went today to the test and tune at Royal Purple. Only changes were new tires MT ET Street Rs and was able to run and adjust the shocks. Track was hooking very well and had some tail wind. 10.30 @129

Badass brother, I love my LS2 combo as well. She's a beast to say the least.

It took some getting used to and I had to mount the rear view mirror which is nearly useless as much as it bounces around. I bought the 3/16 thick one. I would make sure to use the adhesive they recommend from Optic Armor.

There is some distortion at times, but I have gotten use to it or the few times it gets driven around town or to the track and back doesn't bother me.

I have the bump stops removed, some bfh on the front inner side and adjustable lcas. I did trim a little of the rear bumper too.

Figured I would post up an update. Changed to a 5C converter as per Circle D. Ran pretty well for as hot as it was. I did run the fans on high most of the night.

Your car is running awesome especially with only trickflow 215 heads! Your weight has stayed the same since a couple of years ago right around 3500 with you in it? I’m trying to get a rough idea what my 403 may run in my 3500lb car
