What torque converter are you running?
I just put that together the other day. I am only getting 11” of vacuum out of mine and I think you mentioned you were getting around 14”? Wonder why?

I’m running an 11” 2800 stall converter from Mikes transmission. I was in a bind because that was right at the time continental went out of business. When I swap to a 700r-4 I think I will run one of the converters from Cliff. Seems people really like them.
