Thanks Dennis! My 60' is pretty slow for my mph. To beat Toms's #1 bolton I'm afraid I would need a looser converter. I think he has a 3600. I suppose I'll just have to be happy with #2.

Congrats on getting a bit quicker, Larry 
Even with better weather the Yank 3200 just doesn't cut it. The STR is way too low...it's a great street/strip converter, but definitely not a record setter.
It's, without a doubt, the biggest regret I have with my car.
The best 60' I could get out of mine in -1000 DA was 1.68-1.69, so I anticipated larry's car (LS3 vs my LS2 would run about .05 quicker in the 60'....looks like it was a good guess )
Next summer I'll pull mine out and install a different one.

Nice results Devilish, only a small handful of people have ever hit mid 11s in a bolt ons only manual LS2.
Oh he did go...I was with him all day yesterday at E-town and he was remotely considering going down to MIR last night/today.
Speaking of which, how's Fartpipe doing down there I wonder?
