Ordered a new converter

#1 Post by DriveWFO » Tue Sep 19, 2006 7:17 pm

My current 9.5" converter is stalling too high behind my new 383. It's flashing to 5000 rpm and it needs to flash to 4400-4500. On top of that, it slips too much on the top end and my mph is way off.

I ordered a new Pat's Performance 8" race converter on Monday. I'm hoping to see about 2 tenths improvement. Keeping fingers crossed!!!

Got my new converter today. Looks like a nice piece. I especially like the billet front cover. Just gotta swap it in now....<sigh>
