You defiantly had a torque beast the way it was - w/ 28 tall tires you were only going through the traps @ aprox 5700 (485HP). I would have liked to have seen the results w/ just the converter change. Kinda curious why you didn't install the cam heads up. Hope it goes well today-let us know

It’s going in the right direction. 60’ is coming down and the car is showing gains in et without big gains in mph. See what it does when the car can hook well I bet you’ll see more et gains without much mph gain.

I'm kinda surprised you didn't see a more positive outcome. I would like to suggest that you keep a record of the weather you run in for reference. If you don't mind sharing your combo it might shed some light on things. As mentioned earlier that 3.90 is probably holding you back and although your making great power there is probably more up higher esp w/ a 108 lobe center. Also keep it in mind you will gain aprox tenth ET for every 100 lbs you can loose.

What size are your rear wheels, do you have a number for the new cam? I know the old one is a comps extreme. What intake-carb are you running and is it port matched to the AFR'S. What cc'c are the AFR'S
