My first hemi kill

[Pewter4.8L]

I was on my way home this afternoon, when i noticed a dodge frontend in my rearview mirror. I slowed down to see if it was a hemi, . YEP, it was, i must have slowed down to prolly 15mph, this guy had to know i was waiting for him.. When he pulled up next to me, i noticed it was an ext. cab hemi, he looked at me then nodded( kinda like saying whattup), I nodded, then gave him a lil rev, then he revved, and it was on. We kinda slowed down so the traffic would pass us. Then we came to a complete stop. His lady counted to 3, then we were off. I pulled on him right of the start, he spun, I thought he was gonna catch me(since i have the 4.8) but he never did, we went to about 90, and i never saw him until i slowed down. I let him pass and he gave me the . Anyways, it was my first hemi kill, so i thought i'd let you'all know. L8s

the topend isnt the 4.8s problem, its the lowend. if u get ahead of him he wont catch up. u just gotta worry about the launch

Nothing a 3000-3400 stall converter won't cure!

I plan on ordering a 3000 converter next month. I cant wait to see how that helps. What kind of improvements are you all getting with the converter in the 4.8's?

[farmtruc]

I'd say with the right converter you'd drop about .3-4 tenths.

I love my converter, it's a yank 3200 and it's a nice daily driver.
