what is the best and average ET, MPH and 60 foot and at what weight? Also how many passes on this combo as it now?
Need all the details of the car/combo to determine if it's running near optimum and if the converter is right.
The devil is in the details and if the combo is mismatched, you'll never get the 60 foots you're looking for regardless of whose converter is behind that engine.
Did you read this...

Well as the T- 400 goes. It weighs more than the glide and uses more HP to turn. So they say you will be faster with a glide but will not 60' as good as a 350 or 400. This is my first automatic so I'm still learning. I did speak to Ati when getting my converter and did tell them all the details and specs and I have what they speced for me. Dont get me wrong, I am not saying that I dont have the right converter. I was just stating that a few other racers said I should have told ATI it was for a super stock car and they would have done something different to the multiplication in the converter. I was wondering if there was any truth to this. I'm at 2900 lbs race ready. For what I have and run its pretty damn near close. Just felt it leaves soft. I'm sure a little more gear or 28"slick would pick it up a bit. I ran it all last season and made about 50 passes with it.
