depends on your setup. For 100% stock I use to launch at 4000rpm

You have to figure that out for yourself. And why would you feather the gas if your launching a stock LS?

If you're not spinning the wheels at launch, bounce the rev limiter and go for it.

pop the clutch at 3000, if the road is wet its best just to ease the clutch out and punch it

Why would you be launching when it's wet?
