How Much Stall Do I Want For My Aod

[89llx]

I have an 89 GT with edl heads and cobra intake and 410 gears.
My question is how much stall should my converter be rated at? 2400--2600--2800--3000

Cam size? Which heads? and pretty much need every other bit of info about your engine and trans. Where will the majority if the driving take place?

If it were me, I would keep it around the 2400-2600 range based off what you have told me.

sounds about right to me also. that should be about 1000 rpm below peak torque.

thanks guys, I too was thinking it needed to come down about 200 -300 rpm

The question is would it have a better ET with a 2500 converter?

Call the converter manufacturer you are thinking of going with and give them your specs. Try Edge, Dan@silverfox racing, or TCI
