Can't hurt when you are so so close! My guy explained to me that a smaller volume scoop with a pan can easily trap air and make a blockage on a fast car. Food for thought but I would be very curious to hear your results. It's 20* here.... no more racing

Might be the valve body and not the convertor....I have a Griner in my race car, that always shifts with less rpm drop than any other we have tried.

I've tried 3 different valve body's and all are the same.
I think it needs a 7 inch convertor

I didn't get take a good pass so I never took the air pan off.
The track was super and my car would wheelie like crazy and would unload the tires when it got on the wheelie bars. I kept tightening the front up to try and stop it but never did,
Time to take a little bit of gear out.

Im racing next weekend so I'll leave it off on 1 of my time runs and see what happens
