converter recomendations
I wanted to get some stall recomendations, I am getting ready to get my 700r4 rebuilt. It is a 90 5.7, T.P.I. , Crane 2032 cam (270/276 advertised duration 452/465 lift) 1.52 Comp roller tip rockers, l.t. headers, 3.23 rear gears (posi). The trans will have a shift kit and Corvette servo, I figure about 2500 stall, due to the gearing and T.P.I. which I am sticking with both. It is my daily driver, but I do drag race it at the track about three times a month. 2500 sound about right?
Thanks

Yeah, 2,500 is good. Any more and you'd need a taller rear gear. You probably want to consider ported or AM heads soon, and an intake upgrade.

I had a setup just about identical to yours (stock TPI, same cam, same rear gear) and I ran a 2200 stall. I pulled 1.89 60' times while spinning the slicks (stock suspension at that time). Just something to consider.

does anybody know the stall speed of converter from 4.3 V6 if it's installed in mild 350?
