weather is too dam hot right now for you to expect good 60's, i bet your IAT's are way up there when you launch, which will pull timing netting shitty 60's,

on the good note, the mph sounds very promising, and i would definately do the 4.10 gear swap...

my best 60 ft. was 1.88 with 26" MT's. My best 60 ft. on stock tires was a 1.9, lol. I wish mine would launch better too, I think with colder weather we will both be real happy

may be 411s and a 3800 stall will fix the problem

Your converter isn't the problem... Weather and gear are.

try smaller slicks Rick.. some 26s or 27s, you'll get a better launch out of them... try that, and check your pinion angle.. maybe it could be off and that also affects your 60fts.
