JD I don't think the Stage IIs come cranked. They aren't running much boost, in fact on Lingy's sight the red car that went 226 in MT is for sale, and they claim it has LOTS MORE POWER now. Sounds like they were using that car to test some Stage III stuff. Not THAT should be cranked.

You're right... I apologize. Too much info lately hehe.. I can't sort it all out. I think they come on the "SAFE MODE" with like 8 PSI so the owners can't hurt the motor(You know what I mean). I respect the power....and if I had the dough(READ...LOTS) I'd probably own a TT.."MILD" though.. I'd like it to run like this 434 or my 383. Thanks for making me aware of that.

I'll get more info on the intake. Vig 3200 Stall Convertor..HELPLESS 700R4 hehe. 3.54 Dana 44. Recently installed Convertor lockup switch. I'm pretty sure it likes to be shifted around 67/6800.. though when I was in it..the tach VIOLENTLY swung to 7000 like a little 302 or small motor! the thing is purely nuts.

Well, I think a 6700 RPM shift would be called a "Short shift" with this setup. This is an 8000 RPM motor on Sunday!!!
Just a guess, but I bet I am close. [img]http]//www.corvetteforum.cc/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

Yup! It's in "MILD" mode so Frank can drive it on the street with no un-necessary 'HICCUPS' or QUIRKS. I must say...for a 640 HP Combination.. it is VERY streetable. I wouldn't want to see it with more convertor/cam.. it's scary enough now! Sounded good tonight leaving the car show! There was a Yellow Viper there flaunting the thing when leaving. I PRAY it runs in to the IROC one day hehehe.
