Trap speed is low that pass because the ratchet shifter for the 700R4 was acting up. I think that pass it went right from 3rd to overdrive which killed the back end power since the revs were so low....

Tired of waiting on Vorshlag...need upgraded rear options for V8-powered E46

About a year ago, I bought an E46 323 with a Procharged SBC in it. It has a built 700R4 but a stock 323ci rear. It hasn't broken yet at the track mainly because of a sloppy torque converter being...
