The only thing I had done was a PCM flash after the gear swap. I am going to get the custom tune from TSP in the next week or 2.

Raise that tire PSI, if you're not spinning then the low pressure could be making you bog the '60 and it will affect your top end.
Try flashing the converter (stomping it from idle) there's really very little point in stalling your converter if you're not having traction problems.

:eek:Originally posted by '98 BlackBird:
I just turned 100,000 miles that Friday and no I have not changed anything as far as spark plugs, coil packs, or wires. I does not seem to be bogging at the line and it definately is not sputtering.
I am thinking it may be something internaly with the engine. Would a transmission fluid change help or a readiator flush?Comment

do you mean get rid of them or change them?LCA's
The temp guage was reading right at 190 to 195. I did let the car cool down a good 45 min with a bag of ice on the block after one each run.is ur engine hot before you run?New Toy Red 94 Formula LT1

i think he means to get a set of performance LCAs... perhaps that and a tubular torque arm would help?
i dunno, i would be very weary of just throwing money at it.Comment

I believe the stock stall is about 1800 in our cars. I had the best luck stalling to about 1800- 2000 and nailing it on the 3rd yellow, I got a 2.17 60ft doing that with an open diff. I just sent my PCM to TSP and am expecting much better 60ft's now with the verter and Tq mgmnt minimized... ;) BTW I've cut consistant 2.0x 60fts since the verter install but Tq mgmnt has been eating me alive so we'll see what I can do once I get the reprogrammed PCM in there.. :D2000 Firebird.

My 60' is right on track with yours and I have 3.73s..I did get a 2.349 once though when I hit my 15.69. I did the same thing as you(HP tuners) and I hope that fixes it. I think traction control is stopping my 60'because my tires will not spin from a stop but make about 1 rotaion when I hit second(in an auto). Please tell me if the PCM helps.thanks97 RS,3.73 LSD,Flowmaster,Shift Kit,Edge TC,HP Tuners,EWP,SLP CAI,160*,Touchscreen monitor,& Alpine Stereo(155.2dB)15.27 N/A 1.9X 60\'s and a magic switch.Comment

Hopefully I will find out this Friday at the track if the PCM tune helped.
My best 60' is 2.30 and that was on street tires with 3.08 gears, my 3rd run ever at a track LOL.
my 60' average is 2.414.New Toy Red 94 Formula LT1
