          3800?
          Ummm
          So, on nitrous it will be a 4200 stall?
          Not really practical, but that is my opinion

          And still a low STR, why?

            Low str in order to remain eff. I was suggested these spec due to my cam and what not. But if i didnt get the cam i would of got a 3400 stall

              peak torque is around 4400 stock isnt it?? in any racecar your supposed to get your converter to stall what ur peak torque is and the way its looking he isnt gonna be worried about driveability and so on so i believe it will prob run faster...especially on the big end cuz it will be more efficient...

                I had my converter made at 2.4 str to maintain efficiency as well, those of us that aren't nitroused can't afford to sacrifice any top end power ;)

                BTW: does anyone know the str of our stock converters, or do they vary between year models?

                  I still like a 2.5 str w/ a 97% efficiency, and if ur driving it on the street, lower the stall.
