Well 4k is in and I'm almost done breaking it in. It feels like it actually is more steerable than my roadrunner 3500. Two things worth mentioning are when it locks up it's like a firm shift and I'm now throwing a p0751 code. So far very happy, can't wait to get her back on the track.

Lol yeah money and time has been stretched thin since i started this. Not sure if the converter change would affect #s by much but it does alright for 91 octane I think. It's a blast to drive too. Need to get back to the track before it gets too hot out here.

Made it to the track last night, ran a 12.3 @110 1.75 60ft. This was with yank 4k shifting at 6600 and front sway bar removed. Track prep was better than last time so I was able to launch harder plus I'm getting better however the d/a was like 6500ft so I believe in better "Tucson" air and better tires I might have a 1.6 60ft in the car and a high 11 at 112-113. The air is most likely the culprit as far as trap speed cuz everyone was "slower" than you would think I even beat a c6 zo6. Not sure how fast the 392 challengers are but I beat one of those bad a couple times.

UPDATE:
Try to keep this thread alive haha. lost my old email so I now have a new account. The car has been down for months.... I randomly decided to change my oil, it had a bit of bearing material in it so out came the motor. Upon inspection it appears the thrust surface was getting chewed up which I'm blaming on the yank. I did measure the converter to flexplate gap and its it's within spec, on the fat side but within spec. Glad I caught it before it destroyed anything. Waiting on parts to put it back together yank is most likely not going back in.
Goal is to break into the 11s at this elevation. Dont hold your breath probably will take a few months plus i want to skip the summer months for racing.
