Finally installed new Edge converter!

82 GT · 04-21-2006, 03:01 PM

I finally installed my 3700 stall Edge converter! First thing I immediatly noticed was it no longer had that drastic drop in rpms when going from park into gear and sound like it wanted to stall.
I can hear a slight engine rev when pulling from a stop and from going from cruising speed to full throttle.
Throttle response is still nice and crisp though.
It used to spin the tires hard in the 1-2 shift but now it's only a tiny chip, if that anymore. This is a C-4 that does not even have a shift kit yet!
The engine seems to rev quicker and pull harder. I'm hoping to get to the track at the end of the month for a T&T run.
I'll get to see just how much that 2400 stall converter was holding me back. I would like to see a .2 drop in my 60' and another .4 or .5 drop in E.T
I'll post my track results when I get to the track. My best run last year was 13.3@104mph. Since then, I have upgraded my fuel system with -8AN line and Holley blue pump with a sumped pump, ditched the 3310 and bought a 750 DP and swapped in my edge converter.
I don't know if the fuel system and carb. swap will increase HP or not. What do you guys think?
