    What stall convertor are you running? Any trans I do gets a 1200 stall, with an anti balloon plate welded on. The TC's I use are rated for 600 HP.

    They are running the stock 4.56's some have the stock 32 inch tire, others are running 33's, 35's, even did one that had 37's. My truck is running 305/70/16 33/11.5/16 I have only done one blazer cucv and he had the stock 3.08, with 33's. Was really lugging the engine in overdrive, but he...

    An early 3-4 shift could be several things, one could be TV cable needs to come out 1 or 2 more clicks. Not only does the TV cable control line pressure, but it does play a small part in shift timing, vs throttle, vs governor. TV cable adjustments are a trial and error, move it one or two...

    Either remove some of the shims, or purchase the trans-go "bang shift" eliminator kit. It comes with several different springs to choose from that go into the valve body to stop that 1-2 bang shift.

    Yes you are correct in keeping the TC locked, a TC that is not locked is slipping (generating heat), of course it will need to be unlocked when stopped but once you hit 2nd gear locking it up will reduce heat. Keeping it locked when doing any 2/3, 3/4 or 4/3, 3/2 shift will not damage anything...

    Yes I have had several torque convertors cut open, the clutch in there is pretty heavy duty. Well I should say it is heavy duty from the company I have make my torque convertors. As for slippage, the idea is to get the clutches to engage as quickly as possible to reduce the slip or even...

    The TC lock-up "timing" as you call it, is not true. TC lock up will not burn out the lock up clutch or the 3rd or 4th gear clutch packs. TC clutch burns out because of to much heat. 3rd and 4th gear burn out because of heat, towing in 4th gear, to much power for a stock trans. The 700r4 is...

    There are several options for the TC lock-up. I prefer the bowtie overdrive version. it locks up in 4th automatically, and it comes with a switch so you can lock it up in 2nd, or 3rd. Really helps when towing. There is a relay installed on the brake switch so when the brakes are applied it...
