Yep. Yank Conveters (www.converter.cc) have a lot of great info as did Fuddle Racing.

But a TC doesn't increase engine power it just allows more to be seen at particular wheel speeds.

Hence why high stalls are so popular in drag racing.

What was that you said back on page one or two, about calling people names? If I hadn't been called worse things by more intelligent people, you might run the risk of insulting me. I went back and re-read this thread to see where I might have said something other than to point out the antiquity of some of your data, and have to say, I think I've stayed out of the disscussion about some of the inacuaracies, even skipping the many contradictions you've made. Your frustration of having 300/Bhp holding you against the ropes seems to have gotten you to employ the old adage "If you can't Dazzle them with Brilliance, Baffle them with Bullshit". Taking this route seems, at least from where I'm sitting, to have detracted to the many valuable contributions you've made in the past. I may be an idiot, but I do know a smart man only knows more correct things than incorrect things, but an intelligent man knows the difference.
