Default Ls1 tuneup help

Need help with ls1 camaro stocker. The engine runs well and seems to make good top end power but is slow to the 1/8 mile low 6.70s 1.45 60 fts. We have tried 2 different trans and 2 different converters similar results. We believe it is in the tune up.Not asking for anyone's speed secret just want to make sure we don't have something out in left field. Thanks.

What Mph does it run at 1/8 and 1/4?

What does convertor stall too and what type of trans and first gear ratio?

What is the weight of the car?

What engine management system do you have?

According to the data logger 5700 rpms the trans is a ati 350. It is not my car so I will have to check if it is standard low gear or 2.75 low gear

Sounds like the convertor is pretty close. It should definitely have a 2.75 first gear, and the final gear should be atleast 4.88. You need to look at the data log and check the Air to fuel ratio on the convertor flash and down track. The A/F ratio should be around 13.0 +/- .5 depending on what the car likes. If it is in the tune up, it would most likely be off on the hit of the throttle and into the flash of the convertor to have the 60ft that far off. You should be running atleast 10.40s with that mph. If possible, I would highly recommend changing to FAST Fuel injection in the future. Their software is much more user friendly, and their service at the track is unbeatable.
