Edge 3000 converter It picked me up over .2 in the '60 foot alone and made the car launch hard as hell and also put me in the 12's the 3.73's + converter picked the car up nearly 1 second in the 1/4 mile

It was with my LT1, with just SLP catback & CAI, my best was 13.730 @ 100.89. After 3.73's it was 13.300 @ 103.63. Then with the converter, I hit 12.868 @ 104.20.

The gears improved my ET just as much as the converter, but the converter made the car a lot more fun to drive.
