Tried out the stall a lil more yesterday and it doesnt seem to be much faster off the line then before. Still have no traction problems. It just spins a lil bit but no more then before. Is this normal? Or is it just that I don't have enough power since Its a completely stock 5.3 other than CAI and E-fans?

I put just a 2800 in my crew cab and it woke up. It wouldn't hardly spin the 22's before, now you can't stab the gas without roasting the back tires from a stop. A 3600 should have made a huge difference.

Hmm... I Brake stalled it all the way to 3500 and It barely spun the tires. Maybe Its my 3.42's holding me back? Or what could be the problem?

That doesn't seem right. After mine was put in and retuned, it would spin the tires instantly when you stabbed the throttle. I have a LS1 with headers so its not like I have a lot more power than you. Actually now that I think about it, what gears do you have?

Nevermind I missed that you had 3.42s. I think a gear swap will wake it up.

Yea your probably right but I still thought it would make more of a difference but I guess not, unless theres something wrong.

Check ur tranny fluid while its hot. Sounds like something isn't right should be spinning all over the place.
