Bad time at track, solution?

[Capri306]

Hi everybody. Scroll down to the bottom to get to the question, read on for details.

I had a real shizzy time at the track last week. I was running 14.30 last fall with a completely stock engine, and the only mods being a 2000 stall converter, 3.73 gears, MSD ignition, underdrive pulleys, and a K&N filter. My friend blew up his engine, so I put his speed parts in combination with ones I was planning on installing later. Those parts are an Edelbrock Performer intake, E303 camshaft, Dynomax shorty headers & h-pipe, 24 lb injectors, Pro-M 77mm MAF sensor (calibrated to the injectors), 65mm TB, and 67mm EGR spacer. This combination ran 14.70. I was quite upset as you can imagine.

With the stock components, the launches were great. The 2000 stall seemed to work perfectly. My belief is that this isn't a high enough stall with the E303, reason being that it seems to bog so damn bad out of the hole, and seems to SCREAM just as it hits 3000. My friends watching (and my 60') confirmed this: crap on takeoff, watch out after it gets moving.

It just so happens that a customer at my store has a PI converter he was using in his 5.0L AOD'd Crown Vic. He only drove with it installed for about 1000 miles, because the car was hit in the azz. Now he wants to sell the converter to me for about $300 or so. He also has 42 lb injectors and matching MAF, and will let the whole package go for $500.

Question is, will this 3000 stall converter be livable on the street, and do you think it will provide the take-off that I'm looking for? Everything is peachy above ~3000rpm. Thanks for your time.
