well so i finally came to the conclusion that its slower to preload the stock conv. if i just anticipate the light and dump the pedal from an idle i get a faster jump then brake standing it. i tried over and over, but now have to change my brakes 
if i brake it the car spins through first rather than when i dump it it spins until about 3000 rpm's anyone disagree?

ohhh and what also works well is if you stop at the light and hold the brakes while pumping the pedal three times, it makes use of the triple bypass converter regulator while still preloading the inacuator servo accumulators. if this is done right your electronic engine manifold deffibulator can raise the engine output torque range to about 3500 rpm's. when you dump the pedal the engine component sensor reads well above regular there for it raises the air regulator mass sensor allowing the intake manifold to correct the y-junction interconnect. well all in all it work so DO IT!

after an 1/8th mile the car ran off the road and slammed into the ditch flipping me around. hard hit! had rubber all over the doors. that was 1999 and i still gotta see a chiropractor. 
sorry for the long post just had to warn anybody thinking about it. 
Thanks for the info guys i just destroyed my tranny !!!!!!!
j/k but i do have a question If you have a 3500 stall, and you just step on it without/brake stall etc. are you still gonna roast the tires?

55-60mph reverse drops, sometimes the vehicle would just die others it would grab and i'd leave one wheel wonder marks for a few hundred feet . aaahhh the good ol days.

That made me laugh, thanks.
those slant 6's were built like tanks, and could take damn near anything. hell i ran it up to 110mph in 3rd gear once. was shaking a bit until i shifted it into D and then it smoothed out. was my first car and got no respect, now i wish i had it back so i could put my 383cid in it.
for launching i'd hold tighten everything up till just before your tires start to break loose then let it fly.
