Stock Valvetrain FTL!!! lol 13.8 was my best But usually I was on the 14 sec end 14.02 14.01 on the 3.6 setup. That was before the wideband aswell and the fueling got pretty heafty in 3rd aswell thanks to the adders lol

Why are you still on that anyways?

Yeah, cars slower than the 3.6 video :D

Something to take note of is before I did my pan drop I had the sloppy second gear shift. I can still make it do it if I time it right but it doesn't do it on it's own anymore. I also have the delayed reverse engagement common to the sloppy second gear shift. I've read these are a result of some sleeve or something getting worn and bleeding off pressure. I wonder if this is my problem.

I also broke out a stopwatch and did 45-65 times. Mine tend to be 3.7-3.8 seconds while Brandon's is 3.2-3.3 seconds....roughly half a second quicker

I think it's cause you don't have a rear inlay.....:th_lightbulb:

Wear on tranny, less power being transmitted.

So Matt are you agreeing on the trans being worn and bleeding off pressure? It's about all I can come up with

Cam were you stock in that vid?

Like Matt suggested earlier do a compression test on both cars your answer very well could lie right there. If they're very close to being the same I agree your trans has been beaten on more....

A compression test on the trans? Or a cylinder compression test?

Yes on the engine.... it will tell you if its engine or tranny more than likely.

nope, intake, headers, mild tune

Well Austin, whatever you need me to do buddy I'll help you out, given that this compression tester device doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I've got one you phegs can use if you don't have the money!

I'm betting trans with the miles and trans symptoms. And plus first gear I can't tell a diff It's once it gets to second that it starts slowin down.

Ehh I'm not super worried about it. I'm fairly convinced it's the trans Brandon
