    That tech guy... my goodness...

    your encountering ugly weather now. your times before wont match probably untill the fall. stalls are interesting creatures. some like to be used off Idle and others like to be put against hte converter. from every PI converter ive had experience with they like off idle.

    now toss in boost and just makes thigns goofy
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    well I mean my boost normally doesnt come in until about 2500ish, and then you have this 3k stall. So not only did it take a while with stock cam/stock stall to get full boost, now ive got this stall that hurts the cam even more and just drags ass off the line until full boost.

    2500 RPM but how far down the track does it take to start making decent boost?

    A little bit past the 60ft. Its mostly motor and like 2-3 pounds of boost that pushes it to the 60ft. Then it comes in.

    2 step my son. instant boost in about 2 seconds im at my boost level. thats basically the time you sit on the tree


    do the sy/ty shuffle and put it against converter. im willing to bet youll hit boost when the stall off the line

    Ahhh I see then how the converter doesn't help build boost like I thought it might considering the higher leave RPM.

    Wish it did but I only saw like 2 pounds on the line, but when I leave it just drops
