from looking at the ftl its sittin around 12.98-12.99 on the 1/4. da was almost 1800.

zero tire spin and the 60' was getting better every time i launched it. its totally different than all the other converters ive had. this one likes to be stalled up to 2000+

ap, what is you 1/8 and 1/8 mph compared to stews truck if you can find a slip?

Stew, what is your stall flashing too?

a good rule of thumb is multiply 1/4 time by 1.56 and the mph by 1.25

12.87@103.875 is a good 1/4 est.

The faster you are the less you slow down in the heat. A 11 sec car will be effected less than a 15 sec, etc. Same goes with altitude. My 70 K20 slows down .2~.3. 60- vs-100 deg. I have seen FI cars down a full sec. N20 cars seem to be the least affected due to the N20 cooling IAT's.

My old Cobalt SS/SC went a 13.6 @ 104mph in 65 degree weather w/ a 2.0 60ft to a 14.1 @ 100mph w/ a 2.0 60ft later that summer. No additional mods between the two. Oh, this was at HRP too.

FI vehicles suffer big-time.
