And that stalled formula, I would have thought, would have done better against the vette. **** happens on the street though, thats for sure. Very nice video.

The guy in the formula is also my tuner! Car performs well with that small cam has a dead spot from a dig too about 25mph helps me roll out with zero wheel spin

****, ninja'd. Very nice man, get some track times when it cools down, I'm interested to see what that thing will do. The Formula went 11.3 at 120 and you didn't even have a issue with it. Very nice set up that supports everything I take it.

Do you have your **** setup up with stock converter and 2.73's using that cam dude? Im pretty sure I saw that in the narrative in the video....

Yes Sir stock stall/ 2.73 gear works well on the street! Obviously theres still more potential with a aftermarket stall and 3.42 gear! Next mod on the list is a 3.42 gear!

Next mod is a stall, forget the gears for now. Running a camshaft without an aftermarket converter is...no offense, stupid. Should have been your first mod. You are leaving a lot out of your setup. You think it works well on the street now...a stall would make it a dream.

its a small cam it would be stupid to have a huge cam and stock stall. I rather get rid of the 2.73 gears first!

228/230 a small cam?? That is a healthy street cam and I guarantee you it needs a converter. OP, you need to educate yourself on a properly setup vehicle. A bolt on C5 with just a converter would leave you sitting.

Its pretty small! has a little lope you hardly knows it there till you get on it!

Considering Im the only auto c5 running around in this town other then the typical old men! I have nothing to worried about! Ive smack around a couple of bolt c5's stick shift tho! I mean If I did run upon one that left me sitting Id feel bad but until then Ill ride it out till I decide to get one!

Sir if you think I'm ******* his setup you are even more uneducated. If you like your setup the way it is OP then more power to you. This forum is for people to give constructive criticism and advice to IMPROVE your setup. You are leaving a lot on the table. If you do ever get a stall converter, you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner. A lot of it will have to do with listening to people like SF4.6GT. Have no clue what they are talking about.
