BB Chevy,
Do you mean we need a tight converter or our problem is a tight convertor?

Thanks,
Rick
Rick Yes you NEED a TIGHT Converter,3000-3500 Range!

GOOD Luck with that 8",.........
Well BB Chevy, you are correct, we finally put everything back together and JW told us the same thing you said and they tightened the convertor, and I cannot believe the difference. The car just launched 3 time perfect, no shake no wheelies, just perfect. It ran a 7.34 at a density altitude of 7,700 ft with a 1.04 60 ft.
Thanks for all the help.
Rick
Rick,
I started out with a Blown Alchol F/C Chassis,had all parts Motor & Trans(No Converter)Listened to some So Be-It,Knowit-All?Buy a Loose converter 5-5500 Stall.So I did,I fought that Combo for almost 2 seasons?Changed Every Part on the Car,thinking that NO Way there could be a C/Verter Issue It NEW!
Guess what,went back to all the Parts Org.on the Car,purchased a New 10"2500-3000 stall converter,from a Company that I'm not even sure is still around(Munsinger),...................BINGO,the Car went down the Track Better and Faster than Ever before,and deadly Consistant!
