Since you are getting the triple disk converter just have them lock it up on the dyno. That with a bigger cam and intake should get you there becuase the driveline loss when locked up is alot more comparable to a manual trans. Just be aware that a bigger cam and a 102/102 intake is going to suffer a loss of torque in the lower part of the rev range. I saw a test of a Fast 102/102 on a stock displacement L99 with Mast heads and VVT-1 cam loose up to like an average of 8RWTQ and HP from 2500-5500RPM, even greater losses below 2500RPM, only to gain 4RWHP at peak RPM. Needless to say they pulled it back off and put the stock one back on because thats not such a good trade off with a street car. Peak dyno #'s are for show, higher average power is for go.
