PI 3000 lockup stall too much for a stock setup???

Bottom line a converter will either make a brake a combo!

First off when it comes to coverters you get what you play for.

Second, You should really get your combo to what you want it to be, before purchasing a new converter. Because everything goes into consideration for the new converter stall.

If you were to put a converter on a stock car that stalls at 3000rpms, Than you change lets say gears,cam, heads, ect. That same converter will no longer stall to 3000rpms.

You really need to leave the size and stall up to the builder based off your combo.

But if you are dead set on getting a converter now I would go for somthing in 2500-2700 stall range for a stock engine. Just keep in mined that you may need another converter down the road when you finish your combo to max it.

A good converter is not cheap they run an average of 600$

Lentech automotive makes a great product.

Well i think the fact that he already has a converter means that he does not want to buy another one! Anyways, i think 3000 is a little high for a mostly stock car...but you do have 3.73's, full exhaust, and an intake....so i think you could benefit from it. I think that car would leave the line hard with stall like that! go for it! if it doesnt work out...its only a day to put the stocker back in there!

also, some converter companies can restall your converter at any time which would be way cheaper than buying a whole new converter. My Art Carr converter is only $100 plus shipping to have it restalled.

2000 on a stock is better....3000 loses some of the powerband... a 3000 may maketires spin better,but a 2000-2400 would prob make better times since it uses more of the powerband..

Precision Industries makes the best torque converters in my opinion. The converter will work for you now, but it would be better for you to get it re-stalled by PI (I can't recall what they charge for it, but it was reasonable). However, even if you don't, you will have a blast driving the car. The high stall will really wake the car up.

I would also recommend a tranny cooler if you don't already have one. The nine inch converters transfer a ton of heat into the trasmission. I lost one transmission with my nine inch PI because of this.
