I liked mine that way. i did not lock it up drag racing in Fernley or Fallon.

pro.. locking the converter works
con ... don't lock it and be slower

did u gain anything from not locking up?

ok are you talking about driving it around on the street ?? IF it's not locking up just driving around your gas mileage will go down

how long have u had the car? If you bought it in Reno, who did you get it from? I left there 2 years ago and was there for 17 years with mine.
you will pickup about 2 tenths and 2mph locking the converter in a race.
