I am leaning towards the smaller cam and low 2400 stall converter, but like everything this is subject to change. Now the tranny I was planning on using has the lock up converter in it. Does this throw another wrench into the mix? I have a slight understanding of the electronic lock up converters but the hydralic lock up is new to me. I think the big cam would be of better use to me when I rebuild my stock motor now that I am a proud owner of a Offy 4 bbl. manifold. I might have also found a 318 dart that should have a heavier posi rear end in it. Thanks Again Mike |

It is hard to buy a lockup converter that will stall above about 2200 RPM on a Slant, so that may limit cam choice somewhat. You can get any stall you want from a non-lockup converter, which is the way to go if you don't care much about mileage in favor of acceleration. Lou |

Excuse the dumb question but can I use the regular converter in place of the lock up? Or does that tranny have to have a lock up converter to function right? Thanks Mike |

The converters have to be used with the correct tranny. Lock up conv with lock up tranny, and non lock up conv with non lock up tranny. |

Well for now I ordered a RV15 RDP. I figure I will get more radical on the next build. I just bought a 73 Dart 4 door to play with so that gives me a non lock up tranny to build if I decide to part it. I want to say thank you for all the help. Mike |
