17-03-10, 05:29 GMT+10#21 i had the same situation with my car, it is the converter that makes a diffrence, i changed my converter 2 times with two different rpm`s and two different brands and there was a diffrence in kw`s between the two. nothing to do with rims at all.
as the guys said earlier dyno sheets mean nothing to prove hoew the car will go on the street, my vl (injected 5litre) destroys gen 3`s but makes no way near the rwkw of a gen 3. so dyno figures is just figures, its all about how the car goes and feels on the street

i`m running a dominator 3500rpm( due to having done heads and cam) converter in a trimatic so no its not a lock up converter, tce or dominator is good to use. but if its for a stroker i would say 4200 rpm converter is more than enough. let me know how you go when you get it dynoyed again.
