I have to shift at 5400 5600. Stops pulling on the top end around 5600. The last 200-300 it's just going along for the ride.... The reduction to 182 is going to be worth 55 pounds and about 8 hundredths in the 1/4. Not nearly enough.

For all my friends here...and no disrespect to any one in the business, but if you're using a store bought transmission in a low horsepower combination, you're probably leaving a bunch of ET on the table..That goes for the rest of the driveline too, right Billy Boy?

I can assure you that there is nothing store bought about any part on this car.... This car has been 11.60s with a 10-1 340 motor with stock x heads .525 hydraulic cam, 750 on 93 pump gas. All the driveline parts are super lite...

I gotcha. No offense taken. I can only imagine how slow the car would be with a bone stock 727. Experimenting, I put the 318 2bbl and intake on that 340 motor and it wouldn't go past 5800 and only went 13.40
