I think that is party of my confusion as well.
Don’t understand the lock up and what it does and doesn’t do. Is this a converter thing or trans as well.

It simply locks the converter and it turns all as one unit, as far as I’m concerned. It is more efficient, saves gas and runs cooler. If you are making big HP or drag racing, a non-lockout converter will rob some horsepower but be a lot stronger and less parts to break.
