Well I have a real small 2400 stall with 3.23 gears. It feels like it hits a wall when it shifts until it gets back up in the rpm's. At the track launching from an idle i dead hook and can only pull a 1.94 60ft with hotcam,fullbolt ons in a heavy ass vert. I was wondering does anyone think that going from 3.23's to 3.73's could get me at least 2-3 tenths of my e.t. or is it not worth it do I just need to go with a bigger stall.

I have 373s and I think it would be worth it. My old car had 323s and this one gets into the powerband quicker. Id also get a bigger stall to but I would do gears first.
Sounds like the issue could be in the converter. I would think with your setup you should be able to run high 1.6 60's all day long. I've done better 60's on street tires in my 6 speed car on street tires!

Im thinking the SLP 2400 stall is more like a 2100 stall at the most. I can flash it and never see much more than 2000 rpm before it starts pulling . I feel like i may be hitting what they call stall wall as well.

32-3600 stall will get you better 60' if you do some searching you will see hotcam owners with the same size stall 32-3600 running very well.
BONE stock Lt1 2400 stall minimum
BOLT-ON Lt1 32-3600
Small cam Lt1 32-3600
