Those are the best results I've heard with a TCI converter in a 4L60E! That's a pretty nice bang-for-the-buck if you ask me. I'll give ya a few months tops before you want more stall. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

That's a nice gain. I assume weather conditions were pretty close?
