Just like with the OD, lock-up is controlled electronically. After I shift to 3rd (D), I reach down to my console and flip a toggle switch that locks up the converter. As soon as I flip the switch, you feel the car kick, the motor pull down a little, and then the car just starts building MPH. Eventually, I'm going to have the lock-up on a timed relay so that it automatically brings on lock-up when I shift to 3rd, but right now I'm flicking the switch the old fashioned way. Its really slick. I can be right beside one of the stick cars when I shift to 3rd (and they've shifted to 4th). As soon as I lock up the converter, I drive right away from them.
