No Myth to believe.
Not disputing your testing, just your conclusion
I have never had a customer with a Comp car go fast with a spragless.
Years ago we did a lot of converter testing with an A/ED. (7 similar A-1 converters)
Best MPH and ET was not the spragless.
My SWAG is the two converters you are comparing are not built exactly
the same. The window or the stator back angle could be something different
between the two and your engine/gearing combination likes it.
IMHO converters are like twin sisters. They may look alike and be numbered the same, but they are a little different.
