An update of my fresh TH400 and new torque convertor.

I've finally got the goat back on the ground. This is a 1967 with 428, TH400, 3.23 and TSP 9.5 torque convertor. Since this is my 1st experience with a higher stall than a factory 13" I'd appreciate your experience.

When I ease into the throttle from a stop it kind of feels like letting a manual clutch out slow and easy. It cruises along fine once it "finds" it's gear but with slight throttle changes it feels loose again. When I get off the throttle all together as in coasting down a hill it feels as if the trans totally decouples.

But when I nail the throttle it gets up and goes! It seems a solid hookup at this point.

I think this is the way it works and I will just need to get used to it. Does this all sound about right?
