thank you!

 

NOS likes tighter converters so if you plan on spraying it don't get too crazy with it. Althought locking the clutch up can help with that. Screw it......4500 stall and a 5 disk clutch from Chris. Done.

Sorry, I just had a conversation with myself in your thread.

 

I run a yank 3800 and 4.10 gears with my 224/224 cam. Mine is a daily driver...

 

With that cam I'd run a 4000, but I like a looser converter than most. You could get by with a 3400-ish but it'd leave a lot on the table IMO.

 

how is the mileage with that big of converter and gears?

 

I have a 4000 and 4.10's and I get about 17-18 on the hwy. In town, maybe 12-13 on a good day.

 

I made 19 on the highway with my old 225/229, and my Yank 3600. If your on the highway a converter will not affect your mileage. But a gear can...

 

Was 19 with the 4.56's? Word on highway mileage, the converter is locked so it doesn't matter, but in town sucks. Hell, I did 21 mpg all interstate one time in 3rd gear with the converter locked running 70 mph (didn't have 2nd or 4th gear). That was a fun trip too taching 3 grand the whole time

 

No, sorry that was the 6.0 on the stock 3.73's. The 4.56's put my mileage down the tubes. But it sure improved my 60 ft....

 

thanks for the responses!

yall are convincing! I've sent in a sheet to chirs, im curious to see what he says!
