With locking the converter in 3rd you achieve a true 1:1 ratio. Its not like in the lower gears where the multiplication is needed. Manuals dont need the multiplication and autos dont need it either. Your multiplication comes from your final ratio. You dont want slip in NA, Youll ET and MPH better with it locked

hmmm, anyone running a PI 5 disk in a half ton 60E? I know their 3 disk is about $950 shipped. I'm guessing the 5 is around $1150? I called and their only open Mon-Thurs 
Danny, I wouldnt be against that either, but I've already got the trans. I'm not overly concerned, but I would like to at least keep OD in this thing. Maybe once this trans is on its way out I'll look towards that kind of swap. It was built in Sept and doesnt have but a handful of miles on it, hopefully it'll hang in there a couple seasons.

i locked my truck with a single disk fuddle for 3 or 4 years with no problems. nitrous out of the hole and through the shifts and through the lock.
the nice thing about circle d is they are local and you can go knock on the door if you need to.

The use of less gearing will hurt MPH in a big cam setup. Remember you want to be in your peak power band when crossing the traps. 342s wont allow this with any combo and being its a truck its going to hurt him off line. Trucks are heavy they need gearing to get them moving
