I remember having conversations like this with guys - I'd tell them my car had a 3200 stall converter in it and they'd start off with the "I'd never run something like that in my car" and just wouldn't listen even when I explained that it drove just like stock in normal driving.

OTOH, it's okay if people want to be close minded about this kind of stuff. That makes it easier for those of us in the know to impress them with the great track performance of our street cars and leave them scratching their heads trying to figure out how we do it...
The average car guy has no clue how a good convertor is supposed to work..I also run a Continental 10 inch "Jim Hand" special......Had it in service for 12 years now...Worth every penny...
