The reason i didnt lock the converter before was i heard TCI was **** and i didnt wanna risk messing up the clutches. Im working on getting a set of 243s then ill get back to the dyno and lock it. Im taking leave to go back home and ill be running my car at atco raceway in NJ. So ill post my times and videos. I will do the head swap before going to the track. I was supposed to get heads but 3 people backed out on this forum. If you dont wanna sell anything dont post it. Most guys think they have gold. People selling non ls6 243s for 700? Ill be going home in Oct. so ill post everything around that time. Thanks for the help guys. I appreciate it

So i went to the track yesterday went 12.2 at 110 with a 1.7 60ft. I started at 12.3 thrn dropped to 12.2 i hooked up everytime but couldnt figure out the best way to launch. I held it around 1300 and flashed it the rest if the way. Any ideas? I wanna go back and get a better time. But still impressive for 340whp. I drug a supercharged mustang down the track. Haha.

however, it seems there is a problem with the power output and/or delivery to the tires. that car should run a lot harder. my bolt-on 00 car went 12.0s @ 111 with a da of ~2000' and a raceweight around 3600 lbs. i even had an el cheapo fuddle converter. 4k stall. it wasn't efficient at all. guy who bought the car swapped it for a 4k yank and went quicker and faster than i did.

I'm not sure to find out the da. It was at Atco raceway in new jersey and I'm not sure the weight either. I took out my rear seats and spare tire plus all of my toola but i put in a moser 12, midwest chassis torque arm and subframe connectors, I'm guessing arou d 3700 maybe less. What's the best way to launch with a 3600 stall converter? I'm gonna try to post the slip rite after this post. Traction wasn't an issue. I brake stalled to 1300 and flashed it the rest of the way.
