b and m tork master tq converters?

are these anygood, 240 bucks seems like a reasonable price but the thing that bothers me is it says , Engines smaller than 350 cid may not achieve stall speed indicated. one i was looking at is the 2400 one.

That's because stall speed is based and the weight of the vehicle and the torque output of the engine.

Most aftermarket equipment (cams, heads, etc....) with specifications regarding numeric valves labeled for a Small Block Chevy are based on 350-400 cid engines since they are the more popular ones being built.

B&M is simply covering-their-butts by saying that the 2400 stall speed may not be that high in a smaller engine (maybe more around 2100 rpms, for example).

If you go to B&M website and read the fine print on how they come to the stall speed ratings on their torque converters (weight of car, size of engine, HP & torque numbers, etc...) then you'll understand a little more on how to determine what the actual stall might be in your car.

Hope this helps...

Later,
-Mike
