Is this converter (SLP) ok?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

I'm looking for a converter for my '97 with an OBDI conversion. It will have to be under 3K stall, and this will be going in a Daily Driven car with the following.

Longtubes,ORY, Catback, 3.73's,CAI, FLP Stage 4 trans, elec WP and MADZ tune


Sound good?

Doesn't seem to be big enough to warrant a change,,isn't the stock 1600-1800?

I have that stall right now. After some research, I've come to the conclusion that it's not worth upgrading to this one since it's pretty much a restalled stock stall with the same STR or 1 to 1. Get a Vigilante.

I'd say go w/ a Yank 3K stall.. IF you "have" to stay under that 3k OBD 1 LImit.. Why did ya go w/ the conversion anyway? Buddy of mine went really fast on a yank and one is still going fast on one.. NOt to mention numerous other's..

Re: Is this converter (SLP) ok?

Id go bigger and better. I went with a vig 2600 and after driving it a few days its very daily driver friendly. I don't drive my car daily anymore and i kinda wish i went with a 2800 but from what i understand vigs tend to stall sometimes 400rpm more then what they say so its good, plus i dont have a cam yet.
