My trans was built for a non-lockup. There are some mods you'll have to do to convert your lockup tranny if you want to run a non-lockup converter. I found this link. Not sure how current it is though: http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/transmission/cvt_to_nonlockup.html
Seems like I saw a thread somewhere that had an easier solution.
My goals are similar to yours mid tens maybe a lil lower, i took bisons advice tho,i bought the 6266 cea JB last week and i got a 9.5 ptc nl last winter, still stockpiling parts tho lol.....
Haha....The switch from driving my older cars with stock convertors to this Vigilante made me poo my pants pretty good. I cant imagine much better....guess we will see my first time out how badly I need to switch my trans/convertor setup. I looked at teh ptc 9.5 and saw two..one was stupid expensive and one was reasonable. Is the one for two grand..the bolt together one... have a easy stall change option or something? No way im droppin 2g Hope the one you recommend is the $500 one!
