Holy Crap I Think You Should Get An After Market Torque Converter It Should Help With 6 Speeds Don't Go Lower Than A 3600 You Should Then Proceed To Get Some Tires At Least Some Nittos Stall Converters Are One Of The Single Best Mods For Automatics Don't Worry About The Gears Nice Death Welcome To the Forum

Holy Crap The Period Key Is Your Freind.......

.

But to answer your question:
If your spining an auto at a 35 punch with your mods you need tires badly. As in yours must be bald and ready to pop bad. So for safety reasons alone get some tires. I think thats a huge part of what happened. It hard to make up ground when you get such a disadvantage like that. Your 2.73 would be better from a higher punch AFAIK. 3.73s would be seruiously mean on your car with a stall on a low punch.

I agree. The period key is your friend. I guess I was trying to read it all in one breath waiting for the period lol. A 5 car length win is pretty good. Tires and a stall. Do the race from a dig or from a roll 50+.

That would be me man. Didn't that guy sell his car right after that? ANd it wasn't brand new at the time?...

At the time I raced him, my car was CAM only. 592/599 231/237 @ 112. 921 Springs. 7.40 pushrods. and alot of other various bolt-ons, and alot of love.

Did I see you out there in your C5?
