i also found out that the converter i have is a non-lockup converter... i'm not entirely sure what that means but i was told that you cant get accurate dyno numbers without being able to lock the converter... i'll run it for now, but i see a new converter going in at some point... still, i got the converter for $150 so i can't complain too much...
Ugh that sucks. Terrible gas mileage and the transmission is going to run hotter. You can have that converter reworked with a clutch.
