Torque converter gearing the same as a clutch?

[Thepartsguy]

so on 30 series Torque converters you get a 10t 420 c-sprocket.. just like a standard 10t clutch? pick any 70’s mike bike.. So the idea is to buy the torque converter leave the rear sprocket alone and have the same exact sprocket gearing just like the clutch was but the pulleys add a sort of first/second gear? so what if I’m running a 14t clutch and 58t rear sprocket with small wheels? I have to buy a 14t c-sprocket for the torque converter to match the clutch gearing and high speed? I’m guessing I’ll be grinding on the backplate to fit the 14t c-sprocket? will the belt hold up?

You have to make some assumptions.
The centrifugal and the CVT drive pulley are mounted on the crankshaft, usually.
"Most" small engine CVT's shift across the 1:1 ratio.
The CVT output at 1:1 would be equivalent to centrifugal output if both have the same size sprocket.
The CVT 1:1 is usually near the full upshift.
So the CVT should have a "gear" range that is a lot lower geared and a little higher geared than the centrifugal if equal sprockets.

Get a tachometer and some tach tape to measure what your trying to do.
