i was fulling around on wallace racing calculators trying to pick a gear for my new motor/trans combo. and when i input all my info i come up with 9.50% converter slippage. how close has wallace been for you guys and is this a realistic, number. 
5%-7% is more realistic .. its possible you have that
much ... I dont know how close the Wallace one is,
I dont use it for that

I just put mine in and its 6% which is what I came
up with using my data logger ... at 2.76 you have one
of the best conv I've heard of... I know of a few at
3% to 3.5%
