It's amazing how big of a difference a converter makes... much more torque in the new set up but it just doesnt show.

Seems like all roads to streetable big performance lead to boost eventually.

A stock stall and stock gears with 10psi on a 6.0l is a lot faster than N/A 6.0 cam'd with a big stall and big gears and getting worse mileage than ever.
