    Now I am thinking of putting it back together with the new stock converter.

    My thinking is, I don't want to do this too many times, or spend extra money. So put in the stock converter, have it dyno'd, then I will get the correct looser converter the first time with the numbers I get, rather than guessing and getting the wrong converter.

    Does this logic sound...logical?

    Now that I have a new engine and new transmission, I will not be afraid to flog it.

    Thought about the toploader since doing a swap, but I like the C4. And found one locally for a decent price recently refreshed.
