I am thinking it is set for about 50 mph or so, but it does some times, some times not, now that I watched it again, I do believe thats what it is, never noticed it till you mentioned it, but that seems late hmmmmm..

Your still runnig my tune right?It was no lock up in 1st or 2nd and 114mph in 3rd.Also 55 mph and above in 4th but not at WOT.I got rid of all lock-up except in 4th gear.Prochargers don't like a locked converter.
WOT lock up is different then cruising. Aren't you glad i mentioned it!!! I know...im the man!

Is the reason your saying they don't like a locked converter due to the rpm's not being able to climb as freely??? It looks like it pulls harder after the converter locked up, ya don't think..??

I dunno I watched the vid, yours maybe this is really interesting to me. Your running a lifted truck correct? I am no tuning guru, so all this info is helping me out, have to see what king j says when I talk to him...

Depending on the truck/applications a locked converter will pull harder and give better numbers on the dyno but that's not what a Lock-up in the converter is for. Using it during WOT will cause them to slip, burn up and the clutch's eventually get glazed over.
