I replaced the ultimate Rossler PG in my GT/IA (327/250/258 - 3300 lbs) car last year with an ultimate Rossler Turbo 350 and picked up .................................................. .. Nothing!
Nothing in 60', 330, 660, 1000 or 1320.
Dave Smith, who built the Pro-trans in my son's GT/BA Camaro, watched several runs at Bakersfield and swore the car LOOKED faster but comparing time slips showed NO difference. He felt perhaps flogging ratios or converters might find something, but it would be insignificant. Now this was just my combo. Your results may vary. The PG is back in mine since the Winters, just in time to trash my last set of 520 heads.
The fun never ends.
