Question wheelhop during burnout?

I went to the track on wednesday for the first time with my new converter (https://ls1tech.com/forums/12-second-club/484277-made-into-12-s.html) and the car was acting like it was wheelhopping but only in the burnout. It wasnt as violent as the wheelhop that i experienced when the car was launched when it was stock. it almost felt like it coulda been the torsen taking a dump. The other new mods besides the converter are metco lca (poly ends) with relo brackets and BMR adjustable panhard (poly ends). anyone else ever experience aything like this?

Maybe you didn't have enough or had too much air in your tires??? Could be tons of things I guess. Sorry couldn't be more help.
