Re: Converter Problems?

Could be a number of factors: weather (humidity) track prep, etc...You need to post or give the full numbers of each time slip...60', 330', 1/8, 1000, 1/4 and all corresponding mphs for us to see whats going on...

Re: Converter Problems?

the first time i went i hit a 1.7 60 ft. now i keep getting 1.9 with traction and ive been told with the heads and cam and stall i should be 1.7 or 1.6 and ive had the stall a long time and its been through hell when it was only a bolt-on, nitrious car. mybe it just gave out. as far as temp and all that bout the weather its always hott here in the valley so it was about the same there was no change there.
