Thanks Scorpio_man
 
Well basically mate it's when the torque converter locks-up & transmits 100% of the drive to the gearbox.
If I can find a torque converter more suited to a 24V engine that has a lock-up speed the same as when the engine comes on the power it will make it a whole lot faster off the mark Wink
