Heres a video I made for you guys. I tried to include some normal driving, and I tried to give it some gas once but the roads were wet and I spun the whole time, both times I gave it some decent throttle, then I showed (at about 1:58 into the video) what its like at 1500 rpm, if purposely trying to keep it at 1500 just to do so. The car can barely accelerate to 7mph. Then I show why that doesn't matter too much, since under normal acceleration, the converter flashes to about 2600 rpm and you get up and go very easily under normal throttle. Then the power is there when you want to mash it, and I need it to get me into my power band, since I make peak torque at 4900rpm and peak horsepower at 7600rpm. If anything, I feel I don't have enough converter and could benefit from a 5k or higher.
I included a little bit of what it looks like, RPM wise, at 55 mph and 70 mph. One thing I wish I had done was a brake stall to show RPMs there, before the tires break loose from a dead stop. I may do another, better one tomorrow. Enjoy the boring video!
