There's one for sale that I can buy for $150 bucks. The guy thinks it's a 2200 stahl but I want a little more than that. Also I've seen a picture and it looks like a Vigilante(which I want) but I don't know for sure. It was in the car when the seller bought it so he's not sure either. I'm curious if I can buy it and send it in to PI and have them check the stahl for me,and/or change the stahl speed to what I want. Thanks a lot

 

The stall speed of a converter depends on more than the design of the converter. It is as much a function of the torque curve of the motor as the converter itself. In addition, the "flash" stall as opposed to the true stall will depend on the weight of the car as well as (to a point) the gearing.

I wrote a brief intro to converters that you can read at www.kennedysdynotune.com Click on "Tech Tips" at the bottom of the left hand menu and follow the link to "Torque Converters". But the bottom line is that you don't have enough information about the converter to know what it will stall in your car.

aftermarket convertors have numbers on them to tell what they are, there are only so many different companies, call them all if you must and give them the number. It is to hard to tell, it can be big and still be rated at the same as a smaller one. Don't buy something that you don't know what it is, could be the opposite of what you want
