Nice numbers though for sure.

Hey Zip, thanks was a 6750-6800 stall now a 6500, I run my stuff on the loose side so its not very aggressive down low.
I guess you're right i'm just used to these heavy weights.The lightest thing i've sat in, in yrs. and that was 2750 lbs and those have all been sm/blks with not a ton of torque. The last time i put a 7" 6200 converter in my 3100lb car it slowed down 10mph and 1/2 second, so i scrapped the idea of ever doing that again.

This one is 1981 with me in it a few weeks ago, I've tried a tighter converter in it last year 6100-6200 stall and it didnt like it much.
I'll have some track results today I hope
