Do you have a low gear set in the trans now?

Mark, i will be running a 2.75 low Hipster 400( i know , i know , hehe) to get me goin , for awhile, my current transmission is standard low gear... and i have 2 Ati 8'' converters, one of which will be restalled, as they are flashing about 4200, behind 455 engine. That is with 4.10 gears. I have to put the car on a little diet to get it down to 'E' weight...with me , the car is about 80lbs over(3540-3550 on starting line), im about 60 of it. Got to get it down to 3470.
Ive considered running F, all i have to do is add about 80lbs in a weight box.
Im not running shubecks or smith machine lifters, at this time. Im running the Lunati lifter, and Comp Springs, about 140 on the seat. I will see what i have, and down the road, when i change cams, i may have a set of Shermans done up...little leary of the ceramic bottom lifters...It woudnt hurt my feelings if they outlawed them...

Well Commander, seeing as we're friends and all, your comment went straight to my head, my ride being the right shade of pale and secure in the knowledge that I'm the object of my wife's adoration.......then the image of RLS came to mind and BOOM went the bubble.
