Some questions about automatics...

Well im not a pro on automatics either but this is what i have learned. A torque converter and a stall converter are the same thing. I think most people just refer to stall converters as aftermarket toque converted with a higher stall speed. The higher the stall speed the more engine rpm you can build before the car moves...which translates into quicker holeshots. A shift kit simply firms up your shifts...it will raise your stock shift points a little and make the tranny slam into gear more quickly again for quicker et's. The stock rear end gear ratio for an auto is probably 2.73. most people who upgrade their rear end go with either 3.90's or 4.10's for automatics. hope this helps.
