Why can't you have a 3000rpm that you could lower the rpms for the street? I've heard of electric lock up converters how do they work. Thanks just trying to learn more. ------------------ SCOOP oddly obsessed with big scoops on little Mustangs "Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted." 2.26 60'S 14.9 @ 90.86MPH 65 coupe,351w,C4,Big Boss 429 hood scoop,8"3.40 TracLoc,Cragar SS,Black Suede. https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/Fastymz.html IP: Logged
