So I've been having low trap speed issues. Taking advice from my previous post in that regard:
http://www.turbobuick.com/threads/how-did-you-get-to-mid-low-11s.449655/page-2#post-3745165
I read how to calculate converter slip. I did not know the PowerLogger had that function if you plug in the CS factor values. I also spoke to David Husek who agreed that my converter was not coupling well.
According to the PowerLogger my converter slip is ridiculously high. I have attached my most recent log file with the current combo. Old logs from when I had a stock block/cam/heads are no better. Note that this run was with 275/60-15s (not the 275/50s in my sig that I run on the street). Also note that the trans speedo gear is wrong and it reads 9 mph faster that actual. I'm really only trapping at about 110 which means the converter slip is actually even higher!
Is it really slipping that bad, or am I doing something wrong? Trans is built big time, shifts are hard and fast, doesn't seem to be any problem there.
