Sorry Charlie, I couldnt figure out what You were talking about . After going back and reading Your post twice I finally realized what You meant. If I saw that ,it did not register.I guess I must have completely missed your post but now that I have read it carefully I would agree .I know a guy with a 4000+lb. Monte Carlo with a 406. He runs a much smaller Lunati cam(flat tappet) and runs right on 11 seconds flat. Mike brought out a good point on the converter but I will wait for him to chime in.I just went back to mikes post and he never mentioned what we had talked about.If you dont need that much cam ,why do You need that much converter??
i changed my mind, if hes got a good 8000 rpm combination then he ought to be able to go 8000 rpms and then he might need that conv. you'll are detuning his motor but, there is a reason he cant get everything out of his motor the way it is.
