S10 Torque Converter

Today i learned that the S10 torque converter would be an option for a 2000-2200 stall in my 90 Camaro. I have a 305 TPI LB9, 3.73 gears, headers, flowmaster exhaust, Crane Cams HI-6 ignition box, accel coil, Moroso Wires. Will the s10 torque converter allow me to keep my lockup so highway is ok? what year S10 and what engine would this be ok to use from? Is this a good idea and will I see a difference. Let me know, thanks

Re: S10 Torque Converter

that would be the rating with the original engine, the more torque you put to it the higher it'll stall.


good info here: http://carissma.lefora.com/2011/01/2...ll-converters/
