my 60' didnt change

[keniff]

i cant remember the date of the first run but i can post up when i get home.
this last run was this past wed night at No Problem Raceway in louisiana i have no idea the town bc there is NO ONE around the track lol.
the other run on 3:42s was at State Capital Raceway outside of Baton Rouge, La. they both had the same temps really. 95-97ish both races.

im dead hooking on a flat foot, 1500 stall up, 1800ish stall up, 2000 stall. the 60' ranges from 1.82-1.86 if i stall it up to 2500+ it 60's 2.0 no matter what! im running M&H DR 275/55/16s and they are awsome imo. i noticed when i swapped tires my bump stops was about an inch from the perches, well when i swapped tires last night i cut them all the way off just incase i was bottoming out on them.

Sounds like you need a little more stall. Do you have a way to data log it. You can see the flash RPM then to see what is really going on.

i dont have hptuners, but i have an old efi life scan cable from my 01 but ill be getting with my tuner to data log it at the track for me. i need to get with you about a 3600 converter. i think that's going to be my next upgrade vs 1 7/8" LTs and 3.5" exhaust.

ya for sure. If anything, headers/bigger exhaust will hurt 60'. Will help 1/4, but not off the line.

i know i can pick up mph if i had bigger headers and exhaust, then possible pull the heads and have them reworked and swap to LS3 valves vs these heavy L92 heads. the 60' would either be reworked with a 3600 converter or a 50shot out the hole lol.

my WT needs a looser stall, so i may sell the 2800-3000 converter thats in it.

I'm only getting a 1.83 out of that same stall with my truck. It's not a high performance stall to be honest and it performs amazing as a daily driver stall that gives a bit more at the track. To get a better 60' you're going to give up some drivability over the 278mm stall. I would stick with Circle D if it were me...this budget stall has taken everything I can throw at it and gave me no trouble.

[keniff]

i need a looser stall either way. i know i can make up for the lack of stall by regearing the truck but im happy with these gears.
i run Circle D converters in my CC and my 94 W/T with a cammed 5.3 the only thing is the next converter is 750.00 and i cant see myself spending that kind of cash for a 12.8-12.9 pass. i can put the shot on it and get my 60' down but then i'll be putting a tranny in sooner than i want. i dont abuse my truck on a daily basis. i also noticed my bump stops were bottoming out. i do no tow anything with my truck. its lowered 2/3 and it still had 1-1.5" between the axle and the bump stop so that might be an upgrade. we'll see come tomorrow.

not 100% true, depending on the situation it may hurt or pick up a shit load of bottomend

ya for sure. If anything, headers/bigger exhaust will hurt 60'. Will help 1/4, but not off the line.

richard at WCCH said i can upgrade to 1 7/8" LTs with dual 3" exhaust w A H pipe or run 1 7/8" LTs with a 3.5" Y and 3.5" exhaust and itd flow very well even with stock heads. i think imma try a 3" electric cut out right at the Y so i can see what it does.
