and you also have to realize I wasn't really running an N/A friendly converter, big, heavy and tight....optimized for big FI power really. I had a guy interested in buying it to go into his turbo F-body...he called Dave@ Yank and was told the converter would need 900-1000 HP to really shine.

Your 4c is going to be a much better performer at the track. I think you could see 13.50s

I'm not sure if I could cut 1 sec from my best with just a converter. Would be sweet though. My goals for this engine is a 12.5 here in Tucson. Really need to start installing all my crap lol.

Who tuned your truck?

I bet we could get a couple tenths out of it just by optimizing the tune.

Yeah, the tune is off. You should be more in the 12.5-12.8 range depending on the ethanol content of the gas out here.

If you'd be willing to pay the $100 credit, I'd gladly hook up my efi live and do the autoVE and optimize the wot spark too. PLus when you got your cam I could definitely help you out there too.

Maybe. Ill have to ask the guy I got it from. But then you would have to do the complete tune for the gears/tires. and what not. Would that be a problem?
