How can I make the most power? Lock the converter in 3rd. Any other tricks? Also will I be better on Hoosier 28" Slicks, or M/T 26" DR'd, or the famed M/T ATZ in a 305/70 (33")
I really liked the Hoosiers and plan to get a pair, or maybe a set
SO thats what I wanted to use, but was offered the 26's sooooo
Let me know

just slap some stockers on there

That got swapped out a WHILE back. its 3200 now. When I lock the converter it shouldnt matter though right?? Or would it be better to just leave it unlocked?

Mud tires on dyno's sound kinda scary. LOL Chrisj6 had some on his z71 that was makin like 290hp and it was makin me want to back up a good bit.
Someone explianed to me awhile back. Nobody has ever confirmed this though. But when a dyno reads your HP it sends a flash or something like that? And the more gear, shorter tire the smaller the number, i.e if you had 4.56 gears and 26" tire would read less HP then 3.73 and 26" tire. Because it would make it read shorter or something. I cant remember the actual term they used. Like I said tho noone has ever really confirmed this.
