Uh...yep, I'd say that was a pretty good launch. You're gonna have to change the 60' time in your signature.

Cool video! Nice work on the C4. Great little tranny to rollerise and add discs to. Lots of folks run them behind stroked 460's. They're pretty stout if built right.

Nowhere near your neighborhood performance wise, but I'm curious about your rear suspension and driveability with that much converter.

I'm building 70 coupe with a 357 cleveland, hopeing for 300hp at rear wheels.

I've got a Dynamic racing built c-4 with good parts but with auto/manual valve body, 9.5 inch 3000 converter. and 3:50 gear in 9inch.

I figure if car ever trys to hook on street tires that wheel hop will be a b***h! Looking for ideas and suggestions as your car definitel works on launch!!!!!

I run all calvert stuff in the rear.. divability.. a little stiff in the rear.. but i do have preload in the bars all the time..

As for the converter...no problem driving it around on the street..it takes off like normal..1200 to 1500 cruises off the line like normal.. Now step in the loud pedal and 5200 rpms and hang on..I do run a very big cooler I think it was for towing 20k..remember heat kills a tranny and converter slippage will generate heat ..
