We can go to pm if needed.
Need to know if it's carbed or EFI.
I have built several of the small bolt pattern 4 cyl converters.
There's a possibility of a 7 " working in a turbo car, in that you could get the rpm's higher on the line and leave with more boost.
The trade off would be on the other end, of course.
Maybe backing off one number on the gear ratio would bring the mph back
You know that the smaller the converter, the higher the price though...
You'd have to do the testing now
I never got around to it with mine, but I did kick it around a bit in my mind.
