I feel ya on that but if its starting to hit the rev limiter going into 3rd that's bad lol but get it built and stalled and start running 11's!!!!

DA corrected for fayetteville is 12.531 @ 111.176 MPH. You've got optimal conditions out there. not suprised. I ran some of my fastest times in the old evo out there.

Best today, 12.43 at 110.95 on a 1.89 60'. 1/8 was 7.98 at 88.97. Trans is about there however. It skipped off the rev limiter between 2nd and 3rd bad on that run. Would've easily been a 12.3 at 111+ had it shifted.

sucks to hear about your trans issues. Is it slipping or just not shifting?

if it comes down to a trans rebuild or a new trans, it would be a perfect time to throw a good stall in there.

Just not shifting under WOT. Def stalling when I do the trans, no doubt about it.

Great fukn times Stone, even if theyre not exactly what you were looking for! That car is so damn impressive! Sorry to hear about the trans issues. All that joking about the 4l60e and not enough knocking on wood, lol. Ah well, you'll have it back badder than ever in no time!

It's fine just driving around, but I've been down this road with a 4l60 and can honestly say the problem will only get worse. Either going to do a TH350 and 3600 converter or have Rossler build mine. The TH350 is lighter, less mass to rotate, and has a better 1-2 ratio, but no OD...which sucks. But I can pick one up with the stall for under $600. Gotta do some more checking around before I decide for sure.

Getting vids up in a few mins.
