Default Lockup for SY3500??? when? what speed?

I just ran a high et for me at 12.13na@117.37mph, and I hesitate to mess with the converter, but it is set not to lock up at higher speed...should it lock up in 3rd at what speed and stay locked? Thanks

There is not much to gain from locking a SY 3500 and it is hard on the clutch. If you lock it, you'll need to experiment. Typically there is no gain until you are high in the rpm band, say 5600 or higher.
