    Did not think about that, but from his 60' time I am guessing he is spraying on a WOT switch which is dangerous at best with the stock verter.

    he would run .5 faster with a stall, gears dont have anything to do with the stall, with the gears and stall he should pick up 1 second if he goes to 4.10's. good luck.

    Your right I am spraying out of the hole. Once i hit about 2500 rpm I activate it. Otherwise I am like a turtle for the first 5 seconds. By doing this am I going to break my converter or something else?
