IMO I wouldnt even **** with the stock converter. Adding more stall to a stock diameter converter is going to = more heat. You'd be better off doing as many recommend and spending good money on a good converter, such as vig, yank, etc.

The weight on out SS type converter is 28 lbs, loss in weight is also on a 10'' dia. not on 13''
so the power transfer to the wheels is faster, and as more HP is put to the ground at a quicker rate the launch is better, that is something that the stock weight converter can not match in any stall speed

You will see very little improvement from a restalled OEM unit. I had one done here at work, just for ***** and giggles ... it is exactly like stock, no difference. The weight of the beast kills any potential gains from modifying the OEM unit. If you want cheap and a noticeable improvement, get a 11" unit from a Trailblazer. Trust us, you will regret throwing away $200 for virtually nothing.
