Well, I just swapped in a J&W C4 with the works in it along with an Emerald Torque converter that stalls around 3300-3500. And I went from 1 5/8" shorties to BBK LT 1 5/8".
My best time with the T-5 is a 8.10 with a 1.77 60" I go that 60" with a 5000 dump of the clutch on Dr's.
Last night I took the car to the track after the swap and it ran a best of a 8.21@82mph leaving at idle. It cut 1.78 60" on Dr's also I backed the 8.21 pass up with another 8.21 at the end of the night. My best T-5 time was in good air last night it was bad air.
That's not even using the transbrake yet?
I would say that I cruise around 3000 at 60 but I'm just guessing I don't have a speedo!
Well the car cuts the same 60" as it did with the stick but now I only get one tire in the air about 3" vs. both tires a little higher.
I'm not sure about traction I haven't tried to launch at anything but foot to the floor it feels about the same as far as how fast it feels.
I bought my full comp J&W used for $900
Jeff: I tried to use my transbrake and ran into the same problem I'm not use to lunching with my hand???
