LS1 M6 w/ 3.42 on a roll? Oh yeah my car also has 2.73 rear and I'm keeping it. Both cars have the same power mods.

its a very good match. stalled car will rape the M6 off the line and will take the M6 off the roll most of the time depending on speed and RPMs

Honestly, I would still pick you to lose from a roll "IF" the M6 driver was a decent shifter and smart racer (knows exactly what gear to go into at any given speed for best performance). The only reason I say this is because the M6 has less drivetrain loss so with equal mods he should have more rwhp. A 3200 stall will definately help keep it close but the real advantage of a stall that size is from a dig (not a roll).

From a dig I bet on the stalled auto all day. On the street at a 40mph roll I bet on the M6 all day (still a slight dead spot for me with my 3500 stall). From a highway run (55-70 mph) I think it's a close race with the advantage going to the M6 if the race continues beyond 130 mph. And a very low speed roll (10-25 mph) I say is a even contest with the edge maybe going to the stalled auto only because more shifting on the M6 means more opportunities to miss a shift.
