We are talking a much higher stall many cars come with just over 2000 so 2800 is close to stock




stock stall speed in that truck is 1400, it now has a 2800 stall converter.

Ok here is another example, how do all the drag week guys not blow up they transmission driving 1000 miles on the interstate with a high stall converter? How does my 4500 converter not kill my 727 in my R/T when I drive it 60 miles on the interstate to the track, race it, then drive it 60 more miles back home??? trans temp never gets over 180 while cruising on the interstate? Ever had a car fell like the transmission is slipping and it turned out to only be a bad tune on the engine?? A torque converter does just that converts torque, when you are on the interstate cruising to torque applied is lower than when you are leaving a stop light.

think aboput a fan blowing another fan to turn it, it is easier to blow the fan when it is already spinning than to blow it moving from a dead stop.
