Couple tenths, the biggest thing is you can let out of the clutch and hammer it with out the bog

Bog ? Launching a stock 6 speed LT1 on stock tires at 2500 produced no bog. Just tire spin.

Uh... if I launch at 4500 RPM, I would spin the tires so madly, I'd turn a 14.50.
You bog when the car bites, but the rpm's aren't up.

Re: 4:10 gears (Patrick96LT4)
You also have a LT4, and I haven't learned the right touch on the clutch. But all in all most of the time she'll bog because the clutch just won't slip at ALL. I love this clutch but with the stock one I could launch better b/c I knew how to slip her just right. I just need to practice more :reddevil

That will all depend on how good YOU can drive.
A car should never BOG. All that means is that the RPMs arn't high enough.
