Re: Stock stall

So is the stock one locking? what would a 2500 locking stall do for my car?
thanks

Re: Stock stall

Yes the stock one is a locking converter. A higher stall speed allows the engine to get up closer to its torque peak before it launches. That makes it launch with more power available so it gets going quicker.
