So this question really stems from a problem that I caused with My own ignorance! I had Len Freeman build a trans for me years back, then through a friend purchased an Art Carr "O" stall nl to put in it...did not
Know about the "non lock-up" valve that needed to be installed in the valve body, now years later I'm having my trans rebuilt! I'm not going to touch the lockup vs non lockup subject right now, but based on my combo, I'm wondering if I should get a different converter, or if the o stall will still be sufficient.
Stock block, stock heads, stock cam for now.
6766 cea billet wheel turbo
RJC front mount, 5"dp, 4" exh.
TA headers
TT chip
Razor alky
Ac delete and heater
275/60r15s
373 gears installed by previous owner (not sure why)
I have aluminum GN1s and a 218/218 cam to be installed (maybe next winter)
With the input from my friends they say I should go lock up, I'm not going that route, but from the forums, I have read all good about dustys 9.5" NLU. Keep what I have, or wait til I can drop another $950 on a new unit. This sees the street, but this isn't my "street car"
