Are torque converters designed only for slicks. Will I spin if I'm on the F1's at the track with the converter?

I spin horrible on the 20's maybe it would be different if you ran on the f1's... I have never tried it tohugh...

Do you notice a difference on the street with a converter? Is the truck faster on the street/strip or is this a mod that only shows gains at the track with slicks. I really don't go to the track, so I'm curious if this is a good "street mod" if that makes sense (?).

the only times your going to see gains with a converter 90% of the time is if you can get traction anyway, but they sure are fun for the street.
on the track you gain on average of about .2 in the quater.
