what about no torqe at low gears, more torque in higher gears, (bad accelleration, ok after 25 or so?)

If 0-25 mph it feels real sluggish, and then feels ok, it is the torque converter. The sprag (one-way clutch) is not holding.

Engine: 1 BA 305 TPI
Transmission: Probuilt 700R4 - 2800 Stall Midwest
Axle/Gears: 3.42
Would a higher stall converter be more prone to sluggishness or is it just a sign of a bad converter?

If the engine tries to rev freely (not being held back) then it is the higher stall, if not, possibly a bad TC.
