Lol a lock up converter has a clutch in it that when the clutch is applied the converter becomes locked to the engine so there is no slippage . A converter is a fluid coupling device meaning there is no shaft or anything that connects the engine to the transmission fluid drives the transmission . With a lock up that goes out the window and the clutch mechanically connects the engine to the transmission

Got it !!!! That’s awesome! Thanks from what you said in thinking about a lock-up for my slightly modified set up.

Lock ups are great if you drive it all the time but for all out performance a non lock up are the way to go imo .

It’s not a daily driver, but I do take it on long distance trips. Not looking to race it, but like to have the power when I want it. I’m sold on the lock up style converter thanks for your input
