I guess it WOULD make sense to try the track thing before tearing it apart. I'll have to see if I can borrow some tires from someone though. I don't think my deteriorating Nittos are going to be able to handle it.

Your not looking at the whole picture here. Its not just an auto vs manual thing. His is an 02 (way better heads right off the bat) plus FULL bolt on's. All you had was headers and a lid. You also have the worst ls1 production heads that exist (I think). Factor in the problem with your stall and all the bolt on's, and I can honestly see how that car would make 100 more rwhp. Your car and the other car is just not a fair comparison. By far.

The motor is out of a 2000 vette...it's not the original 98 engine. The heads from 00-02 should be the same right?

I believe they are the 853 casting heads (not sure) and 01-02 are 241 castings. Either way just do the basics an auto will dyno anywhere from 5-10% less than a six speed car. Add an ls6 intake (15+ hp) then a ported tb, underdrive pulley and fix the converter. With the converter the way it is now with the rest of the bolt on's you need you could probly see 370 rwhp. Fix the converter problem and you might hit close to 400 rwhp. On average we see 385+ with auto cars and unlocked stall converters. MS4 cam only that is.

Gotcha. I think I'm going to take it up to Gateway once before I start tearing it apart. You mind checking it out if I make it up there?

I'm very inexperienced with stall converters but from what it feels like, it seems to be quite loose on the street too. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the track soon. If 1/8 mile times would tell me anything, that would be a lot easier. The nearest 1/8 mile track is only about 25 miles away...nearest 1/4 mile track is about 2 hrs away.

1/8 mile would be fine. Your 60 foot and e.t./mph would tell you something.

My SS with an air lid only put down 310 on the motor and 359 on a 75 shot. I ran a 8.56 @ 83 motor, then on spray I ran 7.89 @ 92. That should give you an idea, but that is stock no convertor and no cam. I keep checking back in because TSP is about to ship me my MS4!!! Let us know how it goes!

I'll keep that in mind and let you know what happens. Anybody else got any 1/8 mile times?
