That and I looked up DA, temp etc. and it was pretty moist/hot when the sun went down. 33% humidty on my last run, IAT temps were 80 going down the track.

your encountering ugly weather now. your times before wont match probably untill the fall. stalls are interesting creatures. some like to be used off Idle and others like to be put against hte converter. from every PI converter ive had experience with they like off idle.

now toss in boost and just makes thigns goofy

well I mean my boost normally doesnt come in until about 2500ish, and then you have this 3k stall. So not only did it take a while with stock cam/stock stall to get full boost, now ive got this stall that hurts the cam even more and just drags ass off the line until full boost.

2500 RPM but how far down the track does it take to start making decent boost?

A little bit past the 60ft. Its mostly motor and like 2-3 pounds of boost that pushes it to the 60ft. Then it comes in.

2 step my son. instant boost in about 2 seconds im at my boost level. thats basically the time you sit on the tree


do the sy/ty shuffle and put it against converter. im willing to bet youll hit boost when the stall off the line

Ahhh I see then how the converter doesn't help build boost like I thought it might considering the higher leave RPM.

Wish it did but I only saw like 2 pounds on the line, but when I leave it just drops

cams hurt down low and give topend. do the sy/ty shuffle then put it against converter. im willing to bet you see more then 2 psi

I tried that on the stock converter and it wanted to walk off the line. It even started spinning when I stood on the brake and gas last night.

Its just going to be an LS6 cam. I just want my MPH back and an 11.9

you now have a converter. you have more room to build boost. this has been done over and over again with boosted regals and Sy/TYs. mph is lost due to converter.

try the sy/ty shuffle now that you have the converter. youll get your boost off line

I thought he tried that last night. Maybe not.

I didn't try the sy/ty shuffle with the new converter. I did try it with my stock converter and she still wanted to edge off the line

neutral-rev it up high-put brakes to floor-toss it in drive-floor it till reach boost= sy/ty shuffle

lol I know what it is silly

:bs:you told me I would gain a mph

you will get it figured out David. Those track guys are something else.... that one kicked me out for wanting to do a burnout in Brookes tahoe..... I guess he didnt think it would.... They always piss me off... like you said, they are the min. wage taco benders of drag racing...lol

And I have seen the guy on some message boards. Someone called out his track prep on one racing message board and he flipped out saying it was the best and yada yada yada

The guy in the lanes (not at the line) is a you know what but at least the track is always in great shape.

Sounds like the track guys here, they get right pissed if you do a burnout and your on street tires, and there's only one that can prep the the track decently and he only does the OSCA events.
