From day 1 at the track, stock and with my predator I have a slow dead bog when I slam the gas down. I added 4.30 gears which were some help but had gear whine. Now I have 3.73 gears, predator tune (never updated) 87 and 91 no help. It's hot now but always about a 2.10 to 2.18 60'. Build it up to 2400 rpm and you can feel the car bind up. Try 2000 rpm and let it flash some might spin. But mainly I have a bog that feels like it takes a good 60-80 foot to start pulling. Stock converter is bad I know that. I added global timing, timing from 2-4000 not help. Next test I have a set of drag radials mounted today and will run it hard next thursday. Does it have too much fuel down low?? Any other thoughts?

I tried from dead stop to 2500 and not much of a change. I was getting beat at the line also but soon made the time up.

i have this also somewhat. my best 60' was 2.037 and now its higher due to weather i think2.07-2.09. my guy told me also to ease into it also at the line but wouldnt this hurt my times ? it does pull great when i do this method but havent tried it on the track.
