Track Results with Convertor!
Track Results with Convertor!
Well I got the convertor in--2800 Vigilante.
I pulled a 1.79 60 ft with alot of 1.80's too!
My best before with the stock one was 1.95.
Although I didn't better my 1/4 mile time I did get a 13.96 @ 95 mph. I blame this on a 25 mph head wind. It should also be better when I get the new intake and runners on.
As a side note to let you know there is more in it with better conditions I was beating a 99 SS Camaro (14.42) and a 96 T/A Ram Air (14.42). If these cars were running that slow I know mine had more in it too!

Sweet. I've got a 2400 12" convertor, and can't seem to get past a 1.84 60 foot. did you have a convertor in the car that you can compare it too? I hope you are running a tranny convertor, a friend killed his 700R4 this weekend and he is running a 3000 stall vigilante. His fluid was dark brown and burnt smelling. I think his best 60 foot with 3.70 gears was 1.74.
I need to get one bad.

I have only ran at US 41 in Indiana and Rte 66 in Joliet, Illinois.
I have yet to run here in Michigan. Too bad most of my racing buddies are in Chicago.....
