Jason came by this am and we made a little road trip up to Jakes Transmission to pick up Jason's trans. He also purchased a new converter with a billet backing for the lockup. Jake said it has a larger than stock friction in it for lock up. It looks great.

The wagoneer did great. Ft Worth traffic didn't sound like a good idea as they were having the duck commander 500 this weekend so we did an end around through Dallas. It was a great time.

Jake starts with 245mm housing and then does the magic. With the single larger friction disc, he says it will hold at my power level. He says he builds a 3 disc setup for the big boys that will hold but may be noisy as the discs float when at idle

Basically a 9.5 then?
And you can lock it WOT?
Is it a spaceship design like the old 9/11 PTC made?

does not look like the 911. 

That's a nice looking converter!

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Larry, it's just a tad bigger than 9.5". More like 9 5/8ths. Yes, jake says I can lock at my power level due to the installation of the wider locking surface disc.  Never seen a 911 so I'll default to Steve's knowledge with that

I'm betting the slip rate will come in between 3 to 5 percent. Norbs' 5 disc Vig came in at that. Your MPH will be silly...even at moderate boost. Herein lies the problem. Yer' gonna get yer' arse kicked for goin' too fast. Keep it to 7.3 at the 1/8th mile tracks.

Progress pics.  Engine and tranny are out of the car.  On a side note, maybe my cherry picker doesn't have the reach that some do but I had to grab the engine with the cherry picker rolled under the passenger tire.  That little v6 sits way back in the frame.  I did remove that wheel and tire to be able to roll the hoist out. Came out together with no issues.  Now on to the cleaning
