Seems much tighter and it's supposed to be the same just an application for the different Trans .
I have not had it restalled , that maybe in the future. I'm losing interest in the car quickly (too many other projects)

But if you do want maximum ET and drive around town, a 2 or 3 speed is probably the way to go.
I guess you could have lower numerically gears and boost and be ok too.

Bumping this back up.
TH400 in to the car was a massive gain on motor. 1.68 60 foot times with a 500$ revmax converter and 1.72 with the 1200$ curcle D converter.
swapped to the TH400 and 1.58 60 foot on motor. ET was a 4 or 5 MPH gain as well. But, I’ll note I also went to a 8” 5000 converter from the 10” 4L80. I did try a 4200 10” billet converter but swapped the car from carb to EFI, so don’t have a report of a true back to back on that.
