I believe its 4T45-E wouldnt know for sure since I believe the "upgraded" automatic is actually a huge downgrade on these cars, and I would never be caught dead driving one. My 5 speed LS was almost 3 seconds faster at the 1/4 mile track then my parents Auto LS.

How much did it run you to port and polish the head?

Automatics in general are typically slower than the manual versions cause they are complex and have more of a process inside the transmission than a manual, which makes them lose more power during the transfer to the wheels.

An auto trans interceptor only improves your shifts by increasing your line pressure...thats it.
You'll still experience just about the same drivetrain loss as you did before.

It acualy will just because of the fact that the tc will ingage stronger and slip less making it faster in the 1/4 mile than before.
And i do know that autos lose power in the TC from spin off and slip

A stock Automatic LS Sedan runs 16.6, verified by Car & Driver, thats a long shot off from the 3 seconds you seem to think

The intercepter with some one who knows how to set the Tork Converter delay setting has shown arond 2/10 off the quartermile in a cavy so ill see how it goes on a cobalt.
Polys are coming soon or an ingalls or both.

Also, 2/10 could be anything...could be his launching, could be the weather outside, could be less humidity, could be the temperature...that 2/10 could be anything.
Take it from someone who HAS owned a car with it, there isn't much adjusting you need to do. It just makes your transmission shifter harder and more solid...thats it! You're not setting your "torque converter delay setting"...I don't even know what that means.

So my question is, who told him that there was?
