The info you have been given thus far is pretty good.. please remember to get the motor and trans up to your normal operating temperatures.. THIS IS IMPORTANT!!.. convertors are known to vary in stall rpm with different temperatures, which will affect your cruise rpm.. also, Tom's 2 second hold while on the brake is equally important, as some convertors are known to creep up in rpm.. it may initially hit where you want it, but move 50 to 100 rpm on the hold.. adjust off the HOLD..

As I'm always told "The Track Is The Best Dyno".. a data recorder, or RacePak, will always show you where you're really at...
