Not spraying thru the shiftes and ET?

So if I am running 12 flat or there about, and add a 100 shot without spraying through the shifts, how much would this hurt my times? Would spraying this amount be good for at least a 0.8 reduction in ET? Thanks

there is absolutely no way you will pick up .8 by spraying through the shifts


now you might pick up .08


the amount you improve will be determined by how much more rpm you are spraying....but I would say a .1 improvement at best

OK, I guess I worded that wrong. If I'm not spraying thru the shifts with a 100 shot, can I still cut my ET by .80? By the way, you have some e-mail.

I see said the blind man...if you are running 12.0's NA and add a 100 shot it should drop at least .8


my car drops 1.1 sec with a 150 shot and picks up 13mph on the same 60'(spinning)

I don't understand this either. Is it really that much better for the tranny to cut the spray during the shifts? It doesn't seem like it would because the next gear isn't fully engaged by the time the spray comes back on.

Aside from that, I go racing to go as fast as I can, if part of the drivetrain can't handle that it needs to be upgraded.

I spray from launch to finish and can't commet on how much faster my car runs by spraying through the shifts because I've never ran it any other way.

Pretty simple Frank. I don't have one of your transmissions!!!! I'm trying to make the stocker live as long as posable. 30k mile car.

Well hey now, good for you. It's not like I haven't spent any money over the years. When the tranny goes, I'll have Frank build me one. If I'm only going to loose a tenth or two by not spraying through the shifts, I can handle that. But thanks for your reply anyways.

Well I can see tryng to make the stocker last. My point was, does it really make the tranny last any longer by not spraying through the shifts?

Don't know, but that's what I'll try. If it helps even a little, it's worth it to me. After I get a trans from Frank, then all bets are off.
