LOL on the reaction times, I recently installed that converter bain, and my car is full weight, what produced the best 60ft times for you, on the launch.

Thanks

I stall it up to 2500 rpm most of the time. On a great hooking track I can get 3000 out of it. Just try different rpms and find what works for you.

Are you going to sell the 3000?
