I found a good buy on a 3200 stall converter and I'm thinking that it would be better for my car since the Edge converter I was about to order is a 2600 stall 12-inch converter, while the 3200 stall converter is 9.5-inches. Also this used converter is for much less than the new Edge converter. So are there any driveability issues with having a 3200 stall converter? This is my daily driver. Also is 3200 stall too high for my current setup? I will be doing heads/intake this summer and probably the supercharger in the fall or a stroker (not sure yet).

I have a buddie with a 4,000 stall on his nitrous/cammin t/a. The launch on that thing is sweet. It drives just fine on the street. But like any other mod. You will drive like a maniac and probably blow the stock trans if you havent already built it up.

Our cars have enough grunt to live with a 3200 stall. It will definitely be different on the street, but it is liveable. It's slightly too much now, but like I said before, it will do.

I'll probably gain a couple horses too cuz it's a 9.5" converter which is a lot smaller than the stock 12.5"
