1/4 mile e.t wise yes 13.0 to a 12.7 but on the highway roll it wasnt putting the power down that would allow you to pull past someone. my 6spd is fun but it needs a 3200 converter to be fast again

PI3600 single disc.

i like to roll race, its not a track queen. i dont care if i only cut a 1.85 60' with a 12.9 e.t its the 106+ mph im worried about

all i need is a converter an itll be able to 60' better but i think im going to recam with a EPS cam an 1 7/8" LTs

I have his old converter and love it. With my Yank TT3000 I could only get high 1.9X 60' times. With Keniff's 'ol PI3600, I cut a 1.81 60' babying it out of the hole, due to horrible traction.

Pulls just about the same as the Yank on the top end too.

Actually a 5.3 6speed I ran with similar mods except the converter trapped 2 mph slower than me.....

yeah beatdownZ has it now. its a good converter just not what I wanted. yeah its a top end queen simply bc i roll race an it stays at 5300+ when it shifts so why run a cam that peaks at 5000? i like the cam, i just think there is a lot more in it with a EPS cam close to or a lil smaller than my current cam
