I went down to atco tonight to test out some different launching techniques to see which way has the least/no rpm hang. Since it was gamblers I only got 2 decent runs in.
First run off the street(launched at 1500 rpms) - slight rpm hang
R/T: .020
60: 1.618
1/8: 7.403 @ 94.63
1/4: 11.563 @ 118.72

and now for my new best!!!!! :)

1 hour cool down(launched off idle) No rpm hang YEESSSSSS!!!!
R/T: -.035
60: 1.537
1/8: 7.081 @ 96.19
1/4: 11.190 @ 119.79:twisted:

iirc that's referred to as "flashing" the converter...from what i've heard alot of converters work better this way

I will. I'll probably just get the bolt in one, and take it to my friend's shop to have it welded in also.
