Yea you usually loose some low end torque and gain hp in high rpms with the longtubes. Get a bigger converter :nod

you need that converter to rip some serious 60 footers…trust me…it will be the best mod yet!

you really think you lost low end power with the headers?? Even on my 7 cylinders it felt like I gained everywhere.

Also, I can be added for now until I get the car back with the new motor to make some clean passes

it is easy, but my driveway sucks, ive done it in my driveway before to my ole lt1 and it just sucked, thats why i would rather have it done somewhere

I know i need a vert, bad, its not that a lost a lot down low, just not enough to get the car moving off the line.

All i know is that it should be a lot better, As i stand right now i could probably get a 12.8 or 12.7, i just need to get that 60 foot time down, which i really dont see happening without the converter
