8 inch converter questions...

Thanks for the responses.

BVoelzke, I'd love to see a half second drop in ET from just a converter change...it sounds like you just dropped it in an ran it.

flyfish, do you get out on the highway with it at all, say in the neighborhood of 60 to 70 mph? Does it run about the same RPMs as your old 10" converter? I've been real happy with my PTC 9.5 and I have a couple of guys lined up to buy it off of me if I change it.

I'm kicking around the porting idea now...I'm in a pretty good spot, less than 120 miles drive to either Mid America Racing Engines or Schurbon Engine Services, both of which have been competitors in the Mopar Muscle engine challenges. I think either would probably work well for porting the heads, though I may put this in the future upgrades category when I decide that I need to be able to run 10s :)

clinteg, that's what I was looking for, though Dynamic's responses were kind of vague. The trans cooler I'm running right now in series with the one in the radiator is no monster, but I haven't had any issues with trans temperatures. It wouldn't take much to get one about four times the size of the current one in the same space.
