Do you guy think it's the Yank SS 4000, 2.6 STR being to big for nitrous or the trans just not handling the nitrous?

I have a Fuddle 3200-3400 stall speed, 2.1 str, approx shift extention of 4200-4500 waiting to be installed.

Do you think this will solve my problem :confused:

Thanks
Andrew

Your tune is probably too conservative.
Post your timing curve and AFR while on the bottle.

Converter slip behind high torque is also common, but you're losing a lot by 1/8 mile too which makes me think a lot of it is in the tune.
You also cannot judge run to run unless the bottle is full and equal pressure for each run.
Try it again at 150 shot with a full bottle and don't be so scared on the tune.

I have a similar problem on 2-3 shift and I'm told it is the clutch packs and that it is rebuilt time. 1 tranny / year, 4L60E is a pos (and this is a stage 4).

I really don't think it's the tuning, I just think the clutches or the converter is the problem :bang:

It's definately not the verter, i'm running the Yank SS4000E too and hittin her with a 300 shot and she's handling it perfect, very good nitrous verter, tight and efficient.
