13" DPC Converter ?

Jonnydime · Dec 9, 2015

Do these things ever loosen up. I love the way the truck feels when driving but if you don't have your foot solidly on the brake when changing gears from park to drive/reverse the truck will pull right through the brakes. It's not so much a problem for me but I can already hear the complaining from the woman or my mother if they need to borrow the truck.

sounds like the converter clutch is drifting or dragging

I haven't noticed that problem with my 13". My old RCD precision pulled through the brakes way harder than my DPC does.

try replacing the tc solenoid. it corrected the issue on my precision when it did that.

Was running a dpc 13" for 6 mo, then ripped the splines of a aermet input shaft which also wiped out the converter splines. Borrowed a friends precision for one week so I could compete at a local dyno day. Got another new dpc 13" and put that in a week later. The precision pulled through the brakes noticeably. Not either of my dpc.

PI's run on the tight side for sure..

What stall is the converter? lower stall has those tendencies

Jonnydime · Dec 11, 2015

2200 stall. I think it is the fact that I went from a stock trans and converter to a stage 5 and this converter all at once. The more I drive it the better it seems to be.

there is no way that is right with a stall that high. mine did that but was 1600 stall and once the solenoid was changed, it didn't push thru the brakes.
