I finally got out to the track with the Th-400 for the first time.
It was a cool night in Phoenix only 85-90 LOL.
The track prep was not the best as I could only get a 1.48 60ft
I picked up and average of 3mph over the six speed. This best six speed runs were done when it was 50 degrees out. I am looking forward to cooler weather and a sticky track. I know it will do a low 10.

Here are the videos.

I am suprised that Turbo 400 is so fuel efficient

What rpm do you have your two-step and transbrake set at??

LOL MPH MPG its all the same.

3500 on the two step on the last run. Stall is 3900.

3500 on the two step on the last run. Stall is 3900.

So you are not even leaving off the brake??

I am suprised you choose a higher stall, I figured you would want it tighter (200-300rpm below peak torque).

Can you post when you go again? I have never gotten to see this baby run!

I wanted 3500 and the converter has already been sent back one time to get tightened. 3900 seems to be ok. If it pulls consistent 1.3x I will be happy. It is very tight on the top end. I am trapping around 6000 rpm. So there is less than 5% slip.
