Default Revs to leave line @ with Vig 3200

I have Vig 3200, 3.73 gears, shift kit,
TR 230 cam, Ported LS1 heads and all other bolt ons etc and race with slicks/front runners.
What do you guys leave the line at?
Do you stall it up? (to what revs)
Do you roll the throttle or mash it after stalling up?
Or do you leave from idle and flash the converter?

I don't get much time for experimentation as there are normally too many cars racing to get sufficent time to test new things.

I stalled my Vig 2800 and 3200 to 1100 - 1200 and then put it to the floor!!
On ET streets this was good for 1.62 - 1.64 60ft in a bolt on car.

You can only stall to 3200 if you have a transbrake. Otherwise, foot-braking you can expect to stall up to about 2500 on that converter before you start pushing through the brakes.

If you stab the throttle, it'll flash up to 3200, or slightly more, but this really hits the tires hard and plays hell with the suspension. I wouldn't "shock" the slicks with a stock rear end. Better off foot braking up to stall and loading the suspension.

with my vig3600 on nittos i left around 1200rpms rolling into the throttle... usually cut 1.58-1.64's with stock internals.

doing the same technique after the 224cam i spin my butt off and havent cut better than a 1.64

on et streets im probably gonna stall up a bit like reckless said since im on my stock rear.

but usually vigs love being flashed from idle. But im not doing that unless i have my 12bolt back there <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

play around and see what your car likes.. it might like being stalled up a bit better than idle launches <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />

The Vig 3200 flashes to 3800. I hold at 1500 rpm and nail it. I cut consistant 1.60's and 1.61's with ET Streets and Hals on a stock engine and 3.23 gears.
