306 build up suggestions

cop-coupe · 07-30-2001, 08:58 PM

Well I went from running high 15's @ around 92 mph show room stock @ 110,000 miles to runing 15 flat @ 106 mph but keep in mind I did all the listed mods @ the same time, but also consider that my stock AOD only survived two passes with the new toys and I have the stock gears still, I can say that with the new goodies on the first good pass it launched like a pig but once it hit 2500 rpm it pulled like a bat out of hell and it did not want to shift into 2nd gear and I had to back out of it @ around 7000 rpm and it was still pulling upto around 6500 rpm (keep in mind this was on the stock tach so take it for what its worth) and the B-cam is definatly going back in my new moter. I only got a couple hundred miles on it before the tranny went, I figured why not do it all at once and I think with the T-5 and 4;10's with the 306 I will hopfully start having a serious traction problem. in short in my opinion the B is good choice. Let me know what you decide and what the results are.
