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.
Are you at sea level?

I'm getting right at 12 inches vacuum at 5,000 feet, which would be 14-15 at sea level. But I installed the camshaft at 106.25 ICL and I think Paul set yours at 107. Might be other minor differences as well?

Yep those converters through Cliff work excellent. They come from TSP and I dealt with Cliff on 2 of them now. One he did for this 455, same combo you're running, and another he did for my fathers car. Extremely happy with both of them so far.
