Default inconsistent reaction times with yank

pulled out a hughes 2500 put in a yank 4000, r/t's are all over the place now, e/t is consistant 8.29 8.30 8.28...reaction times suck, tried going deep, mostly shallow stage i'am either .002 or .112 bring rpm up to about 1400....maybe bring it higher?...can't get a handle on it..any advise? would cut more consistant light with hughes converter....lower stall may be a factor
tired or donating to the pot and going home

Bring up your launch rpm to 24-2500ish. If the brakes won't hold than try 2k range.

1400 is too low. I use to run mine 2500-3000 and hit the lights consistent.

Is your 60' consistent? If it is moving around .02 or so part of it could be the tires. Usually that will should up at the big end but it doesn't look too bad there. Usually the driver in my case.

Yeah try stalling the converter up a lot higher. Mine personally liked 3300 or so.
