RockHead Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Take a look at Dan's Run 1:37 into the vid . Is that backfire coming from under the truck getting off the line ? It looks like it came from the Driver's Cat Not sure what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Where are you shifting at and how much RPMs does it drop? 6500 1-2 and 6400 2-3 It drops 1800 RPMs which is normal. I just have a sharp power curve and want to be in it as long as possible. A set of 4:56 gears and a 27" tire would kick ass with a 3800 stall. Awww c'mon now! Mr. P. Yea, your right. Its gonna happen, I can't resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krambo Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Why does it drop so low? Most everyone with a Vig 9.5" 3200+ RPM only drop about ~1K ... Thats weird... I am basing my "normal" off my old 2800 10.5 Vig. The drop seemed normal to me as I have nothing to compare it to (like for like). My old Yank TT 3000 dropped less during shifts (with the 6.0L). As I stated, I would love to drop 1K at the shifts and have a true 3800 stall. I already talked to some top converter mfg co.s and if I am willing to drop $2k on a custom built converter, they can do whatever I want. Regardless of what I do, the converter is coming out and at the very least will be re-stalled. I really do believe that my E.T is being impacted dramatically with this "tight" converter. I need to prove it to myself.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here check ou this thread on PT.net http://performancetrucks.net/forums/showth...shift+extension I am sure it is a 9.5". This is the tightest converter I have ever had. I spoke with a few techs about it and they assure me that they can build one that will stall at 3800 and have 1200 RPM shift recoveries. I may go with Circle D at this point however PI will work it over to what I want for minimal cost. I always said to myself that I would do the 80e if i had to pull the tranny. Looks like a winter project is on the verge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
