Vigilante Triple disk vs Single disk....difference?? Explain to this transmission idiot what the difference is and would the triple disk be needed for a cam-only set-up looking to dip into the high 11s??
Unless you plan to lock the converter at WOT theres no advantage to the multidisk as your converter normally will only lock at part throttle cruising. And there are very few instances where locking the converter at WOT shows any benifit

What if you're into roll racing? My 80E/383 combo gained 30rwhp and 25rwt when I engaged the lockup under WOT. I don't understand why this wouldn't make a difference late in a run, or even during a mid-range pull on an FI motor.

The advantage in some cases is to allow you to stay in 3rd gear in the 1/4. Meaning if you are running out of RPM's this will allow you to gain some without having to shift in to OD. A gear swap or tire size will help to correct this as well. I myself like the Vig triple or the multi disc. They do lockup very nice on our Dyno. Vince
