2000: the real Art Carr is back!! And I will have all of my original employees that were
the back bone of the company that was in Fountain Valley. We will be building the 16930 torque converter
 that Kenny Duttweiler helped use design.

boards:
The 16930 from Texas will be a heavier Converter due to the big Back Plate they use.
The 19930 from The REAL Art has an internal Anti-Ballooning Plate and the Converter is a little lighter.

I'll need Steves help on this. Art ran different stalls on the same numbered convertors from what I can tell. It could be an N stall...O stall etc.

The 16930 I have is extremely tight. I think it's a N stall. I'd have to slide under and look. I believe the 16930's were rated from 2800-3000.

Bird(Rich) to my knowledge ran a 19930 with his 70 GTQ. I've seen the 19930's rated from 3400 to 3800...once again depending on the letter.

Joe also ran a 19930 with a 70 GTQ. I'm not sure what letter his was tho.

[Shimy87]

I talked to him and the 19930 is comparable

also my pick for a converter.

[Scoobum]

My buddy Mike runs a Yank in his 2002 LS nitrous 9 second Camaro.

[motorhead]

I have a Yank 2600 Truck Thruster in the TBSS, does 1.6' foot times.  Not bad for a budget 300mm converter which retains full towing capacity.

[Shimy87]

Question,  when I switch to the 28 inch tires if I still have this converter do you guys think it will create more slip at the end of run or less??

[Scoobum]

I'd wanna be shifting...and hitting the traps...at my peak HP.

[Scoobum]

I'll go back and check...but I think Murph went through the traps with that stock block/stock turbo engine at 5 grand. I forget what RPM drop he was getting.

[Scoobum]

A full page of solid data for a stock engine/stock turbo. Have a look/read of RPM drop and shift points.  A good convertor is essential. He said he was getting 5.5 to 6.7 percent slip depending on the calculator he was using. He's using a 28 inch tire and 3.32 rear gear. He's working within a 700 RPM window.
