I had a very loose converter that allowed the engine to flutter at 7000 on the rev limiter, (drive shaft was 5600) it just drops ignition on various cylinders, not closing off the exhaust like a jack brake. I'll try it out this spring to see what happens, intriguing. some type of cut out switch would be the best.
