it is a rev maxx 4500 stall, got my 60 ft times to a 1.68 from a 2.00. et dropped from a 8.10 to a 7.70. engine is a 302 with speed pro flat tops. and a herbert cam hyd. flat tappet cam. hand ported e 6 heads by me. the old converter was a bos hog 2800.
havent been to lassiter in years , i was maybe 20 years old last time i was there .and im an old old man now lol. we usually go to chilton county, montgomery or maybe holiday. mostly chilton or montgomery. ive heard they have totaly redone lassiter. maybe can get up here one day soon tho.
i wish it were fast lol. i look at a lot of tail lites. i did add a 750 pro form carb along with converter. i got that when i got the converter. i have a new motor i want to install but just dont have time at the moment.i also have another maverick that i plan on installing a 351 c with a 4 speed. but that is down the road also.
that an 1/8 mile time? if thats a 1/4 mile time with stockish parts Ill be as Im spending close to 12K on my motor alone to get below 10 seconds in the 1/4 mile.
will that car run on the street with that high of a stall converter? if not why? wont it still take off before that rpm? does it hurt anything to street a converter that high? I have a 2500 stall in my car for now and it takes a little gas to get it to go but it doesnt TAKE off or anything. I tried launching the car as if I was at the track and it threw the whole car sideways damn near wrecked the car but then again my rear end is JACKED UP glad I wasnt at the track. I would of bit the wall right at the starting line
Good time guy,I'm a dist for rev maxx conv. ,I like that there a 9 1/2 in conv,helps keep the heat down when using on the street,just make sure you have a nice size trans cooler,and warm trans up good before racing
I run a RevMax, 8" 5000 spragless. I drive to shows some times, trans temp stays normal but I do have a big cooler.
it can work ,just keep checking conv. for paint burning off of it,its all the stop and go stuff that hurts the conv.,there spragless one is a super nice setup,ive ran them for 10years,never had a bad one,some people think you need to spend alot of money to get the best sometimes alot of the cost is profit and middle man cost,i live close to coan, have ran there stuff its good,but for 1/2 the price ill stick with rev maxx,no offence to those who run coan,where else can you get a 4500 stall for 360.00 bucks good to 650hp,in fact i had the same conv. you have, and ran it behind a blown injected ach 358 sbc making 930hp,10.5 tire s10 pick up i use to run in open comp.
