What RPM's are people using for the 2 step? Do you set rpms at max torque or just keep adding rpm until 60ft slows down? 3200lb 73 Duster 610 torque at 4800 604hp 5600 400ci Auto w/ cal-tracs 4:56 gear w/29.5 tire Thanks Mike

Have mine set at 5300. That is where it 60' the best.

You're gonna have to do some testing. Higher rpm doesn't always mean quicker 60' or more consistent 60s. 3400 works for me.

I dont use a chip for launch... I have a 3 step but no chip for launch.... 1 chip for the burnout and 1 for over rev... 5600 stall converter and I leave at 5600 rpm on the converter.... that gives me a 1.19 60'(best) normal is a 1.21 60'

I would run it as low as I can to save parts in the trans, and for consistency. I would start testing at 2600 to 2800 rpm and see if it will leave consistently there. No sense beating up parts if you don't have to.

Especially if it keeps you green.
