2055 hooker headers
catco cats
american thunder catback
holley 52MM throttlebody

Re: torque converter question

Your car sounds fairly stock. You would be fine with a 2000-2400 stall but if you wanted the extra performance I would get a 2400-2800 stall.

i myself is getting a 2500/2600 stall for my stock lb9 with 2.73s

since you have 3.73s a 2000/2200 should be ok

Re: torque converter question

ya the car is stock outside of those specs. I will go around 2200 2400 stall i guess based on what you guys suggested.
Which one of these would you buy for me?
