    The automatic shifts up at a lower RPM than the torque converter lockup. Either fit a beefier torque converter to allow for more acceleration with less slip, or make it shift up later.
    At this point you can cruise around in 6th gear at 5 mph. And that's not good.

      No, well at least i dont think so, i just thought of the torque curve of the cadillac eldorado engine, gave it a higher rev limit and reduced the torque slightly, and it is light for what it is (aluminium block, not cast iron)

    It's great! Yes it does "slip", but that's what a powerful engine is supposed to do! Breaks the tires loose a little bit, gets the cop car get a little sideways, but it's controllable! Very nice.

      i have tuned the transmission so that a full throttle launch gives no slip (hardened torque converter) and it still gets to 60 in 5.8 seconds :).
      Update is still waiting for approval

    The engine is perfect, However, The automatic slips ALOT in light throttle. Have not tried the Manual yet.

      slips alot? as in wheels breaking traction?
      if you mean transmission slipping then it is designed to do that.
      Its tuned to be as smooth as possible.
