Is this normal? I installed a vig 3600 multidisc and lost 3mph and now when I run from a roll I get beat by guys who I use to beat pretty easily.
I have been getting misfires but I pulled the vavle covers and everything is ok except the rockers seem to wiggle a little. I dont really thing all of them could be bad however the converter had been running it up close to 6300 and hitting the rev limiter a lot...
BTW I have read that misfires are normal with converters but Im getting like 6-8 total misfires are idle and when I rev is to like 2500 i get around 35 total. They are pretty much random. It this normal. I read the fix sticker and it was already done.
before the converter the car ran 12.5's with a 1.95 60' now it runs 12.5's with a 1.80 60' but it was about 30* cooler w/o the converter. Do you think something is wrong.

The differece in weight of the converter throws the computer off with the misfire table. I turned off my misfire detection to eliminate converter issues. Is your torque management enabled. If it is you could be looseing some power by timing decreases.
