low on the fun scale for sure

 

[GeorgeH]

I had a TA s800 in a car was pretty happy with it. tight enough down low where it wasn't a problem.

It worked out ok.

 

[dukeboy440]

yea - add in the 4.10 gears and it is actually slow on the street

ouch, so yeah, you're mileage is measured in gallons per mile.....

LOL - I really have never bothered worrying about.. just don't run out, that's the plan

 

[ScampMike]

[GeorgeH]

in order to give me the range i'll need for that cruise, i'm gonnae need at least a 25 gallon cell.

so IF you're lucky and are getting 15mpg - you'll still have to stop for fuel every 350mi. or so - - and that's IF you keep your foot out it..

right but in certain parts, there's 250 miles between gas stations so that gives me a reserve.

what is an S800?

here's the shot - no way are you getting 15mpg out of the big block you are planning to build - and NO WAY are YOU keep your foot out of it..

that's what Turbo action calls their street verters.

exactly my thinking lol.... So I think i'll just run a standard 20 gallon fuel cell, and then just carry a reserve tank for that cruise.

One i had was 3200. Drove like a normal car untill you hammered it.

what year was the TA?

I'ma thinkin' 200mi range MAX

 

[GeorgeH]

What year was the torque converter? Don't remember. TA = turbo action

 

[dukeboy440]

I'ma thinkin' 200mi range MAX

probably. other option is since I'm running no spare tire well, i have plenty of room for a dual fuel cell setup.... so run 2-15 ga cells. with electric pumps, i could potentially run a switch to let me switch between tanks like some trucks do...

LOL - I thought you meant TransAm!!

I know you like gm's and all, but I had that converter in a Challenger 440/727 lol
