does a Big Converter need more pressure or less? My New Yank SS4200 seems to be alot looser than my SS4000.Like on downshifts ect...Do I need more or less trans pressure?To Bring that seat of the pants lauching back.
Not sure about the question but in reference to the clutch, being a smaller diameter most of the time they need more pressure to lockup firmly without slipping, which will kill them quickly.
High stall will "soak up" the torque spike and the
smaller rotating mass will bump the back end less
through the trans, regardless of pressure. This is
not a bad thing, you just have it in your mind that
a hard shift feel means a more solid apply. The
apply may be no different (in fact should not be)
but you are trading RPM-slide for a hard torque
impulse and presumably profiting from it (shift
extension and a less severe bang to the drivetrain).

That is putting it in a respectable manner.I believe this is True Jimmyblue.I talked with Dave at Yank today and we are going to restall it.I am kinda driving through the verter,I think it puts me to far into my power band .He said he was affraid of that.If it is doing this N/A ,then it will be worse on NOS....
