what type is the 2400 and what type is the 3600? If you are going with a good 3600 like a 9.5 ACT, Yank of Vig, yeah I'd say around 4 tenths.

Depends on what type and brand of converter....I had a 2400-2800 LPE converter which came with the 383 package...unk who actually made it for LPE....Stepped up to a Vigilante 9.5" 3600 lockup and got 5 solid tenths...dont know what your set up is, but that was with 3.42s...no other changes made...by the way the Vig has been in car for 7 years with no complaints...

going from a "cheap" 2400 stall to a PI 3600 will be very noticeable.
do you have plans on a cam or headwork?
for a stock setup a 2800 stall is optimum.
why do want a 3600? why not a 3200?

I do have plans in the future for an all out engine buildup with heads and a cam but for now im going the all bolt on route.

i want a 3600 with a 2.0 str to work with my 3:73s to get a little softer launch but still be able to pull pretty hard at the top. the reason i want a 3600 is to get closer to my max torque range.
so im hoping to gain around 4-5 tenths from the slp to the vig convertor.

I really depends on the combo. A higher revving setup will gain more than a car with more low end torque.
