So - ever since I got my transmission rebuilt up a little, the governor has allowed WOT shifts too high. For instance, the one I notice most is 2nd to 3rd, because it is shifting at about 6100rpm. So, in the near future I am bringing the car into a shop to have the B&M governor recal kit installed, and they will take care of all the necessary trial and error to achieve 5500rpm WOT shifts. About how much ET do you guys think I am losing currently or how much time do you guys think I will gain after adjustment? I was figuring b/w 2 and 4 tenths of a second.

 

Only if you can answer this simple question:

"How long is a piece of string?"

 

Hehehe - ok yeah, good point.

What I am aiming to clarify here, is since the TPIs powerband basically is useless anywhere above 5500 rpm, and if the transmission is pulling the engine up to 6100rpm, I am going to see gains once I get it to shift at 5500rpm. Undeniably correct, no?

 

I get ya, and yes you should pick up some time on the 1/4 mile. I wouldn't swag more than maybe a tenth or two but very repeatable.
