Gear Vendors overdrive

You add an overdrive that drops your rpm below the 2500 rpm, then isn't your converter "slipping" which in turn creates HEAT?

Isn't this why modern AODs have lock up converters?

thats why you need a converter built to that combo.. moden converters are a ,ot different the the ones a decade ago.. with OD it will have to be tighter then a non OD unit but it can still be a decent stall. they are using smaller dia. cases (9.5") to get a higher stall speed but using a positive pitch on the fins to make it lock up better for the street. it will still be a compromise though..
