[QUOTE="Norm Peterson, post: 16394521, member: 193960"] For street levels of grip, you can't even dream about going to WOT in the first two gears (at least). Not even part-throttle to the point where you're only putting out 350 ft*lbs at the crank, which is way short of WOT output. 350 at the crank times 2.34 (2nd gear) times 2.0 (at least, for your loose torque converter stall ratio at launch) times 3.55's in the axle just puts too much at the tires (even if they're a good bit taller than stock), and you'd still be less than halfway down at the pedal. Having full manual control over the transmission where you could start up in 3rd might tame your beast enough to keep from frying the tires just tip-toeing on the gas pedal. Norm [/QUOTE]
