question on torque converters....which one

[02_lightning_NP]

I'm getting my tranny rebuilt this weekend cause its shot and im getting a damn good deal and i want to upgrade my torque converter because soon i'll be going with trick flow heads and stage 3 cams if i have it my way but i have no clue what stall converter i need, i read some stage 2's need at least a 2500+ stall but i have no clue what any of that really means. also if i go with a 2500+ stall converter how would that affect me until i put the new heads and cams in? Will i still be able to drive my L until then...

Most folks go with a 24-2600, I opted for a 2800. Still very streetable. I got the PI, it took about 3 days to arrive from Tenn., but I'm in FL.

i had a JLP spec'd PI in my truck was around a 2400 stall... i didnt even notice i had one till i tried to lay into it from a dead stop... the RPM's jumped and makes alot of smoke

Call PI and talk to them... they will make a custom setup for your truck, mods, and what you want out of it.

I have that same set-up ordered as we speak (motor-wise)... I will be going with a 2400.

I ran a 2600 stall in my truck when I still had a pulley and bolt ons. It dropped my ET by 3 tenths. It's a must IMO. Now I run a custom 3500 stall PI converter with the turbo.

if your planning on going twin screw etc etc go with the 2400..... ask around to see what alll the other 600hp guys are running they will say 2400.

cool thanks, so why do the stage three cams say you need a 2500+ stall and people only run 2400's?
