Richie, add 1/2 qt. of fluid!

The lag is somewhat inherent in some valve bodies but many times its due to improper fluid level .
Here's the link to the Turbo Action tech tip on proper dip stick measurement.

I’ve been working on the car all day
Ran it for a few minutes and checked the level and it was low
It has a custom locking dipstick and someone marked it on one side for correct level
Without pulling the pan I can’t confirm that dipstick is correct
I’ll recheck it hot at the track next week.

Car needs some TLC and we’re getting reacquainted.

Rich,
I don't know about a 200 but in a PG if you just plug the cooler lines off with out modifying the pump it causes a restriction in fluid flow out of the converter. Converter will function different with the restricted flow. Just Put a loop on it and see if it helps the issue.
