Stock Torque Converter Failure here! Updated

[Tommy V]

3.31 with a stage 2 MT82. Tall Nitto NT05R 315/35/20 tires too.

I think if u can hook that is definitely a 9 sec combo,331 gears go good with mt82 and fi.Tire is a little tall but u have plenty of power.

That tire is only 28.6 tall which is not too bad. Any high powered stick car is a struggle to drive. We should do a pool and see who can come the closest to guessing the top 5 fastest cars. My guess is Joe, Me, Tommy then stick guys LOL.

I.agree a stall really wakes these autos up coming out of the whole.

Does the car behave differently from say a 45mph roll locked in 2nd gear with a convertor vs a stock one?

 

[Tommy V]

No once it's locked in 2nd gear it pretty much drives like stock.

Hell with the convertor I have if u leave from a stop under normal throttle u hardly notice any difference and that's with a 3800 stall.Now if u put it to the floor then u notice u have a stall

Tommy has a 3800 FTI and I have a 3C which should be similar. We are going to compare the two to see how different they are. I have been told the FTI has better street manners.

9s should be no problem with your setup. I would go with drag radials over slicks on the auto. My car cuts 1.43 60FT with a 3c and MT ET Street R Radials.

Just wondering, Ive always wanted to ask someone with a converter how it leaves from a roll on a set gear. Thanks.
