:yup: Since the converter in 3rd gear at WOT stays unlocked, you will see lower peak hp numbers. Although your tq figures should be higher, especially if the trans would down shift into 2nd then upshift again (tq spike).
Besides, with a converter you should be more concerned about ETs than dyno numbers. My SS dynoed about 320 rwhp but ETs 12.4s and low 1.6 60's.

yes it will, quite a bit
for autos, the dyno is more of a tuning tool than anything else
its nice to have bragging rights with big hp dyno numbers, but its better to be able to throw down at the track
