No I can't explain any further without teaching everyone how to build a better converter which I won't do.
The 6 speed converter is weaker to begin with and cannot be built as strong as the 5 speed converter. Since there are so many 6 sp converters laying around, builders need to use them up to recover costs. We will start seeing them now. They will not hold big power.
Dann-o- what was your fastest time before you upgraded your tranny???
So what converter do I need to be looking for in order to do an LMM built trans. Stock trans. Is the McRat converter the best or what is the new best? 1057?
I am want something that I could tow with but overall I am going to be truck pulling an drag racing. I am wanting a reliable 600hp+ daily driver 11.99 1/4. Pretty much what Tom Bacon has done with his truck plus some. Stock turbo, stock injectors etc. That's the goal anyway.
Thanks for the nice compliment, but I think a more realistic goal is 550rwhp and 12.30s out of a stock turbo/injector truck. I think Ive pushed as far as I can.....guys far more intelligent than I told me it would be tough/near impossible to get to 600rwhp on stock turbo, and i suspect they may have been right.

600+ with stock turbo and injectors will be hard to do. If you do get it, it wont be reliable.
So, 12.9 is the fastest Dmax to EVER go down the strip with all stock factory parts EXCEPT tuner, exhaust and intake?? I thought there were faster
There are several guys that have claimed up to a 12.6 on a "stock" trans. I heard 05smoker tunned a RCLB LLM and it went 12.4.

I guess that would be possible for a RC/LB that weights close to 6,000lbs
Have you ever been to a truck scale?
No vids that I can remember, but there are several guys claiming it so they all can't be full of it. The Dmax is losing ground tune only with a modded pump 610RWHP "smokeless"
