Not good on the converter but I have a new one going in soon. Plus I've done a crap tonne of intake modifications that probably made it run lean as, battery relo and intake, bigger piping and IC. Maybe the 255 has levelled it all out again 🤣 Cheers for clearing it up though, I think people are thinking I've put a 460 in, I didn't clarify what sized pump I installed 🤷♂️🤣

Anyone who says you can't drive your car with it installed doesn't know their arse from a hole in the ground. 1
