Sam what is the elevation of your shop ( ft above sea level).
It will be interesting to see what i make when my Stage 2 gets here.
I was out testing the GTM torque converter on sunday. Car pulls harder with it but it still needs a higher stall speed. The outside temp was 22 degrees. It ran very well especially between 7000 to 8100 rpm. No oil temp issues that day.

Buy a turbo then!
For the note, I have driven the SC z and it is nice, just can't feel the tq like the turbos have. With being a drag strip dude, I would have thought turbo would have been the setup for you.
