When you've got big hips like my burbon does you have to spent the green! I'll check mine tomorrow for excessive heat build up, that should tell me if it's having issues. Slippage would definitely rob power, should I adjust any of the line pressures?

Circle D & Yank are what most on here prefer. I'd scratch the PI, I've heard of issues, unless they turned it around lately.

Which tuning software are you using? I would set up the converter to not lock at WOT for the time being. Also, you can check for slippage of the converter with EFI live, HP tuners, etc.

I have HPTuners - where do I check for slippage?

I've had good luck with Circle D in other cars - old stuff - TH350's and 400's. They make a great product.

I'm not familiar with HP tuners, sorry.
