Default Transbrake-converter question.

Got a question, I am setting the car up for this fall, I just swapped to a Jakes 4l80 with the tbrake, I got the billet converter, I have footbraked the car on the street and it is dead on 3k then the tires break loose, Im really close to 500rwhp on the eng. And I am gonna spray it, so the converter was built "tight" for the nitrous. Here is my question, I have heard that with enough HP you can "bottom out" or "blow through" the converter while on a transbrake, I have the lingenfelter controller that pulls timimg and limits revs. How do I know if I am going thru the converter, I am trying to figure out where to set my rev limit, I know the converter is at 3k on the street, but converters also have flash speeds also. Any help on this will be appreciated. Thanks

Honestly contact the converter company. They probably can answer you question easily.
