Driveablity ?
I am thinking of putting a 2800 - 3000 stall torque converter in and want to know if this will be drivable on the street. I don't use this car every day its just a weekend driver and track car so it isnt daily driven.
Thanks in advance

I had someone tell me it would'nt be good on the high way due to the fact that the stall was higher than the crusie rpm. Made me wonder if there was anything to be concerned about. This will be a lock-up converter so I was thinking it would lock and there would be no problem.

As long as you go with a tight quality converter like Precision or Yank you will be fine.
The cheap garbage ones like BandM just slip until u hit 3k, the nice ones still move the car belowe 3k but will stall right to it on demand.
I have 2 Precision Vigilantes and its my choice above and beyond all others.
