    Was it a Dynojet or a Mustang dyno? If it was a Mustang dyno those number's would make more sense for a mostly stock LS1. If not I'd say something was wrong w/ the machine or it's operator, not the car.

    Also I would recommend a stall somewhere between a 3600~4400 with a 2.4 STR IMO. All depends how loose you want it. Mike

        STR stands for Stall Torque Ratio. Basically, STR is torque multiplication. If a car has a higher STR, it will feel tighter on the street because the converter is multiplying the input torque by a higher number. It will also give a harder punch out of the hole. STR is created by two components inside the converter moving at different speeds. Shortly after launch, those components reach an equal speed eliminating STR completely.

          +1 to Johnny.Also the more power the car makes the little bit higher the convertor will stall.Also if those tourque #s are right that thing is a tourque monster

            That graph loosk terrible there is definatly something wrong there, I'd say get it redyno'd somewhere else and you should see completly different numbers.

                Anyone know of any good dyno shops around the Grand rapids area. AYA Racing wants $150 a run. Im not sure but that sems a little high considering he isnt even tuning.

                  Help me out here guys, but aren't dyno tune's usually $300+? I've heard that AYA is pretty good, but I've never been.

                    Dyno tunes usually run $500 or so and for just 3 dyno pull sit should only be around $75 find somewhere else or come down to W2W.

                      Yeah, that'd be worth the drive I'd think seeing as people here have used them and I don't know anyone that's gone to AYA.

                            I just found out that I have 3.23s in the rear. Thats good right, even though I wanted to go 3.73s this winter. Should i just put in a stall and call it good?

                              Yeah wait on the gears until you get a stall, you probably won't want them after.
