Guest Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I was very uneducated about converters, I ended up taking the reccomendation from Bowtie Overdrives when I put in my four speed, and have a 2400 rpm stall. I feel I could have went to 2600 to 2800 with a similar engine to yours, so 2200 to 2400 is very streetable and also gives great acceleration.

Guest Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 what's the difference between 2400, 2600, 2800...are there advantages, disadvantages? what will give me the best acceleration? now that you do know about torque converters, what would you use with my engine and why? i'm using this for a high performance street application. thanks a lot!
