Hitting the revlimmiter about 10-30 feet before the traps and going through the traps at 117mph. Here is the set up. th350 b&m holeshot 3600 nitrous ready, 3.23 gear and 28inch tire. I know i should not be that high on the tac with that set up. Trans makes wierd noise and feeling on 2-3 shift on nitrous but fine on motor runs.

thr converter should go into a vortec flow where the fluid rotates in a spiral motion inside the converter and obtain fluid coupling

so basically at high rpm you shouldnt be stalling anymore but anything is possible i guess. but id look at the tranny

What sucks is the trans was built early this spring to hold an estimated 650hp, but i was never given a torque spec for it. Trans is killer out of the hole. I hope it isn't the trans.
