I remember my engine builder Verle of "Verle Stevens Enterprises", was told by Marv Ripes (the founder of A1), to have my Turbo 125 converted from lock-up to non-lock-up, and he built me an 8" unit, that stahled up to 3600rpms. Try them, if neither of those two were the one you spoke of?
Adam @ A-1 took the stock converter as far as he could go with it. I also found a mild shift improver kit for it.

But I'm having fun with this 5 speed and I still have some things to try with it. Mark knows how fast I've been with mine & that makes it hard to switch to an automatic. @ 2500lbs and I haven't had that cam ground yet or built a better header yet.

Yes I've just hit local races with this car, so far. We've had some S/SS combo's locally the last few years and I'm learning how things are run and getting to know the racers. The last few races have been sponsored by and a BIG thank you goes to Steve Hahn, and I'm just hearing better things are coming.
