Didnt want to hijack Yeti's thread and I wanted to post up the video showing the converter lock up. (Precision Industries 2600 triple disk (Vigilante). I was leary of the converter at first but I am really starting to like it!!!

Also keep in mind this was in street trim; the tranny is shortshifting a little bit. With my shorter drag radials on it stretches 3rd a little farther. Anyways, Enjoy and hook me up with some more G8 of the Month Votes!!! The poll is closing in a couple days....See the link in my sig!

Nice video! I love the converter lockup, it seems to give an extra push down the road according to the butty dyno.

I have a similar video with HP Tuners showing the lockup as well.

Thanks! Yea the ole butt dyno can definitely feel the beast mode when it locks up! I need HP tuners bad, it's nice having Rick close by but it would be nice to scan and log on my own...just don't need a brand new one with a bunch of credits.

Dude I want one SO BAD!! Funding issues. Wife and I are trying for kid #2 and due to budget concerns a stall is not in the cards for sure, unless we are not successful and give up trying. My buddy Richard just put a yank 3200 in his and I love the way it drives.

Did it unlock right before the shift or is that a little bit of trans slip when shifting to 4th ???
