I think they stall at 2100 rpm. You can get an S-10 Torque converter P/N 24202310 which has a 2200 stall : $168.00 + $30.00 Core. From www.gmpartsdirect.com Which is what Im going to do.

Vega convrters have a stall somewhere around 3000-3500 depending in vehcile, engine, ect. They are strong enough to hold up to a big block too.

I make nearly 400 ft-lbs at 2000 rpm and I haven't blown mine up yet.
