They do the same at Irwindale & they told me I could do it either way. I paid at the gate.

Mike and B King.
I was unable to locate the Summit ET finals at LVMS on the foat website.
I found the
spirt of the streets fuel fest and import face off but no ET finals.
Mike will you be speaking at the ET finals?

Doing that the converter is multiplying a lot of torque and could be hard on the clutches. Every combination is different and people definitely do it.

I've used Coan or Steve Casner in the past. I believe FTI also makes a low/high gear valve body. I have used it in brackets and T/D at it works fine. Heat could be an issue in late rounds.
