Then you could spend that extra money you saved on a good torque converter and drop another .5-.8 of a second in the 1/4. That's the bad thing about slp. They slap their logo on something and all of a sudden its made of gold.
That's what I kinda figured. I am thinking more and more that these magazines, Truckin, Motortrend, etc. are like reading extended advertisements for certain products. Thanks for the opinion, it's always appreciated!
