Default loss of power? give me your thoughts

it seems after i did the ls7 clutch swap my car isnt as stout. only real justification i have for this is before i could stomp on the gas in 2nd gear (with stock rear out back) and i could spin the tires when it was kinda cold out and even during the day when it was warm high rpms the tires would slip. now it doesnt really do that at all.

i just wonder if the extra weight of the ls7 over spec could make a difference like that or maybe its just slowing down how fast the motor wants to rev so it cant break the tires loose. only other thing i changed was to koni rear shocks from bilsteins. i know it sounds stupid but its just kinda been in the back of my head. hell before in the real cold i could roll into 2nd gear and spin the tires. could all be in my head but i drive myself nuts over stupid **** like this
