I'm switching to 3.42 gear. Should I go with 2600 or 3200 stall converter?


TIA,

2800 Stall P.I. Love it with my setup.See signature. J.H.

3000 rpm stall in mine with 3.42's. If I had it to do over I'd put a 3500 in.

I just did a Yank SS 3600 W/3.73's ....awesome results with vararam. If i had it to do again i would go 3.42's w/2800-3000. This i think would be better for the street imho. Throttle tip-in would be less sluggish for around town. Freeway...because of lockup wouldn't make a difference while cruising.

Have had a Yank 3500 for over a year, it's great. I would go at least to a 3200 if you have any mods or plan on some in the future. I have 3:42's.

no less than 3000

3000 to 3200.

This is subjective info.

Thanks for the input! I've heard some members say that some converters are tighter than others? IF I went with something in hte low 3k range, wouldn't I have more sluggishness off the line/part throttle? Thats why I was thinking something in the 2600-2800 range.

i have a 3500 with 3.42....you wont even feel it after a week or 2...dont go to small you will want something bigger later

That's the main reason for me choosing the 3000 to 3200 range, that's the breaking point for me. Any higher a stall and you begin to notice that sluggish feeling at lower revs.
