Default stall coverter question

my car had a 3200 stall in it from the begining, and dynoed around 420 hp and torque, i have a stock trans and was thinking about going with a level 5 trans, what i was wondering is it alright to keep the same stall with the trans upgrade? the major difference is now the car is at about 510 hp and 435 tq, and someone told me that my stall was set up for the car the way it was and with the added 90 hp and extra tq i should get another 3200 set up for my current power. is this right??????? thanks Matt.

hey matt, call terry or jack at percision industries the'll give you all the info you need:


http://www.converter.com/index.htm

from there web site: Stall speed should be matched to engine performance, the car weight, tire size and gear ratio. Proper selection of stall spec will make for quicker launch, better 60 ft. time and better ET. It is very important that these parameters be specified when ordering a converter to assure satisfaction.
