ah **** lol but i still like the scoop :rofl:

i like the scoop.

Lenny from Ultimate Converter built mine 400 rpm over peak torque. car liked it, went from 11.10 to 10.85. gained 4 mph and launched way harder, 1.60 to 1.55. this happens so often. the converter is over looked and then wonder why the car is such a dog.

i asked to see time slips to back up this theory since the dyno is completely different the the track.

you are correct.

I haven’t fired car up with the new ignition. Hopefully Saturday

I just switched over to a 7AL-3. Haven’t used it yet since putting it in. I had a 6AL

Locked out at 37* at idle which is at 1500 rpm. Trans brake

my car is a bracket car with a loose converter. The rpm window is narrow, I leave at 5800 and shift at 7000. I have no dyno to try just track time. Only have 1 distributor also.

i will do this and see what happens.

ok thanks for your knowledge

what engines did you dyno test this theory? stock, mild, all out race engines? i do have a lot of converter and my car is light.

i want to see time slips that prove this? if it's 20-30 HP more HP, the ET and MPH will change.

just dyno? no track testing?

yes they are. very underrated

show me the proof from your testing? what engines? track times as ET and MPH must have improved.

20-30 HP lost by locking out distributor? i would like to see any proof of this as i have a very hard time believing this. yes my head is spinning

sounds and looks awesome Don

i grease the trailer 4 times a year. if you keep on top of it, it's only 1 or 2 pumps and done.

should the 318 be build as a torque monster or horse power? not sure which one moves the car better?:poke:

sounds good. hopefully in a week or so i can fire up my junk. if everything goes smoothly, May 11 is a test and tune that i want to attend. all i have to do is put intake back on.

That’s from the main man John Calvert himself. When you buy his product you trust what he recommends. So I bought what he said.

I did try 2 different converters to see if it would fix the lousy 60’. First was a TCS and the second was from Ultimate Converter Concepts.

I’m glad they work for you but they didn’t work on my car. 2 years of adjusting and several phones calls to Calvert himself, I gave up. Wasted a lot of time and $ with cal tracs and I will never use them again.

i just bought a '772' mopar intake. not sure if i'll use it yet as i have a CFE tunnel ram. i would really like to start porting but scared to screw it up. it's an art form for sure.

5800 is in the ball park for your peak torque. my black R/T was horrible in the 60'. i had cal tracs and it didn't matter what i did, there was no change in 60'. i talked to John Calvert several times over the phone about it. i switched to his 90/10 rear shocks and still no difference. next...

when you had it on the chassis dyno, where was the peak torque? 5800 should be lots as i doubt it made peak torque higher then 5800

My 414” is not even close to being done

i wish! middle of May (weather permitting) to middle of September is the race season.

yep it's sad how much more we have to pay to cross the border. it's double by the time it's all figured out
