"un" lockup swithch

[n4hwl]

If having the torque convertor locked up during low transmission pressure conditions is hard on the clutch how about this? Can we install a switch that keeps the torgue convertor clutch from locking up until we want it to ? Would this work? Just an idea

Thanks

I have been considering the same thing. I know the guys that drag race with high power use a switch to prevent lock-up. I also think that a properly set up valve body will provide the pressure necessary and unlock when appropriate. You may want to post on DTT's website and see what Bill K has to say.

The BD TorqLoc switch can be set to have a unloc. It's not a problem and is needed on the current clutch designs if you have high power.

The only problem with running unlocked is the transmission temps are gonna go through the roof. The stock converter fluid connection is too inefficient.
