I have a few questions....

How much does the car weigh?

What is the main purpose of the car? Mainly street and a little strip, or the other way around?

At what RPM do you shift?

What is your actual stall speed? Are you getting up to the advertised 2500 RPM before you start to spin the rear tires or do they start to spin at like 2000 RPM? I have a TCI Breakaway in my C4 and it's advertised around 2400 RPM but I don't see it. My tires will start to break loose at about 2000.

How are your launches? Are you spinning, bogging, getting wheel hop, etc.?

How well is your 351 tuned?

I don't really know enough about your car to have any ideas right now...these questions will help. Hopefully they'll help other people, also.
