To be honest I wouldnt change anything till you get
the racepac installed and see if your tack is just off
which very well could be your issue

All these RPM/gear/stripe numbers are useless without the MPH. If I have the car slowed to run 9.50@143 it only turns 6700 instead of 6900 at 147.

Wow some of you guys really twist them. I shift about 6200 and trap about 6400 at 10.70's and almost 125. But my mild 493 seems to like that rpm range. Ron

like i said et means nothing mph determines trap rpms. watched some old films of 1964 super stockers, they ran 11.60s at 130 mph. a lot of difference then and now. today some cars run FAST out the back door.
