I have a 1986 Camaro Ed Quay built , I race it in bracket form now , Has Nesbitt 531 ,power glide 180 straight cut , 4.56 rear weighs 3200 , When I bought the car it would go 5.91 1.27-60ft and put it on the bumper , Convertor broke PTC , Car was shifting 6500 and would go 116.mph . I have been through 3 different companys and all convertors stall 6200 -6400, 1.37 60ft 6.10et 114 mph .Peak torgue @5900hp and 7400 max hp . There are a ton of these cars running SS . I,m at a loss need help please . My thinking is it needs 5500 stall . I sent the new PTC back to lower stall 500rpm ,going to test this friday and see Thanks
