I'm having a very nice AOD built as we speak for my 68, and I'm wanting a 2,500 stall but I'm not familiar w/ the pros, and cons of the lock up vs non lock up features.
Is a 2,500 stall 'bout right ?
TCI, and Huges seem to think I'll be happier / better off with a non-lock up. They think I'll loose power / efficiency with a lock up, but I thought a non lock up will still slip on the highway. Is that just a trade off ?
Anyone care to enlighten me on this.
Thanks-
