Thanks Mark, (N40GL)
On our First Dynoday/Chicken Run @ Dynopros,
took two fellow Marauder'ers for a back to Back spin .
First in the Trilogy Marauder (Mine) then Marks' awsome Kenny Brown with all new power.
We were all very impressed with both cars.
You have a sweet Marauder Pal!:bows:

Ah yes, I forgot at the time, but Mark - someday can you take me for a spin in your car? I'm not asking for a joy ride but I am very interested in your torque converter. In fact it's probably best we stay easy on the pedal so I don't get the Supercharger confused with the Torque Converter.

Til then you may see me in traffic with my head out of the window, blowing backwards when the wind isn't going my way.

Bradley,

You also have a very cool Marauder! It was very nice to compare them back-to-back.

Jason: Let me know where your 'closed private highway' is and I can meet you there. We can also see about that Autobahn thing in Joliet.

You mean that race track? I think I saw that in Robb Report. Anywhere is fine, just around the local roads, I understand what the torque converter will do at WOT but during the times I am not going wide open, I'd like to see how it moves around town.

I'm in Wisconsin for the next two weeks, but I'll get a hold of you when I return. Thanks

Is the torque converter different from our trans verses one in a GM turbo 350? We have a 69 chevelle at 3500 stall, I know I've brought this up before, but if everyone says what you stated Zack could someone explain to me how these two would be different? The Chevelle (502 cu) is amazing at WOT, but around town it just screams. The chevelle is @ 3500, this PI I hear suggested is @ 3500 - so why won't my car scream like that during daily easy going driving?
