If your engine is lacking power the converter will also slip. Though I am sure you will find a fair chunk of performance switching to a quality converter.

It's a custom Comp Cam 260/265 dur. @ .050" lift .370"/.375" lobe lift on a
110 lobe sep. Springs have a couple dozen runs on them but were checked by my machinist when we tore the motor apart last year for an inspection. Shifting anywhere from 5000-5500. Majority of my runs had a 1.5~ 60'er but times were slower due to my errors. Only had the car out once last year so I spent the time enjoying the rides and didn't change the tune at all. Running 36 locked advance
