When good is not enough, Camshaft time again.

Not sure what you mean.
With big hp/TQ an engine can basically run through the converter and it will continuously slip more than it should. There will always be a little bit of slip (unless you have a lock up) but a good quality converter will couple and accelerate the car. There’s a bit of math to determine how much the converter is slipping using gear, rpm, mph stuff and I’m suggesting you look in to it.
