Since it's a new converter, and a Power Glide, I would definitely look there first..

I put a new converter in my 540" B1 w/Glide 3000#.. (thought it was making close to 900hp) and it went 9.40 @ 143..

Immediately took it out, put in a trusted converter, and went 8.78 @ 153+..




Chris..



ok, that's crazy. was the converter slipping that much or was it just so tight that it bogged the engine down? was the converter fixed and did it work after that?




Turned out to be a bad stator/sprag combo..

Brand new converter.. Was fixed, and went .05 slower than my current converter, but same mph..

But, it was .1 and 1.5-2 mph slower t-stop racing.. (Supposed to be a copy of my other converter, but with a sprag, to get more mph) Didn't happen..

Glides and converters are very touchy.. But once you find one you like, you'll fight to the death to keep it..
