6.2 ordered a converter
I just got off the phone with Chris at Circle D and ordered a converter for my 6.2 EC Silverado. These trucks suck from a dig for about 1.5 seconds until they get into there powerband hence the shitty 60 foots....
The truck went 13.9 multiple times at 99.5 with ARH long tubes, a bullet muffler and a tune.
I recently changed to 28.8 inch height drag radials stock is 31.7 tall tires in hopes to pickup some gear ratio. They are also lighter with the wheels i got on the truck from centerline. I'm hoping to have gained some ET with the tire height change.
As for the converter I went with a Billet Multi Disc 2800-3000 stall Circle D cause i do tow ocassionally. what should i expect???? I cant wait to get some new ET's! Of course i will post ASAP.

It'll rip! The new converter plus lighter, stickier rolling stock and a better effective gear ratio will feel much more aggressive. I think you will be under 13.5 no problem, and 13.2 seems perfectly possible.

Very interested in your results. I have a 2011 GMC Sierra with the 6.2L and 3.73's and with a custom tune, performance muffler and drop in K&N the best I could run was 14.1
Wanting to get a converter and some LT's and get into the low 13's
Keep us posted!

4wd here; only idea I've got for my truck's performance is Phil's time. He ran a low 15 et with the same truck (CCSB NHT) on the same size tires, but in 4wd and he's stock other than the level and tires. With my intake and tune and a 2wd launch I feel like I'm at least mid-14 territory, but I've got nothing but a close race with a 3v GT to back up my hunch.
