Symptoms of broken sprague in converter

Alan Warman · 08-29-2011, 12:48 PM

This might be the problem I had all last year. I built a old school TH200 for my car, the front pump uses power guild splines. Had a converter built for it. When I first but it together the converter would brake stall to 3200 and flash to 4800 but it had no high gear. So after talking to several people I bought a Billy Lynn valve body and Billy walked me though the build. Well it had high gear now but the converter would only brake stall to about 2200 and flash to 4200. The car would run dead on times and had 1 to 2 more mph than it should have for the ET that it ran. Does this sound like my problem.
