is your lt1 an automatic, cuz i noticed something pretty slow about a stock lt1 auto, a 97 z28 anyway. That when it hits 3rd gear the torque converter locks and the rpms r not even at 4 grand when you hit 3rd, so the engine kind of bogs out if u will, do u think that could be why u get pulled hitting 3rd gear? If you got a manual disregard that ...

anyway, excellent kills for the always underrated LT1!
