Can someone explain this concept to me. I know(think) that when you have a 3400 stall for instance that the car is forced to lock up once the rpms hit 3400. I also know you can drive the car at less rpms than this. How do you use a stall converter to your benefit, i mean how do you unlock the drive train till it hits 3400 when your wanting to actually race it.

Thanks for link. Appreciate it. So if you are say at a strip and had a 3400 converter, you would rev the car just under 3400 with the break held down till the green?

Depending on how tight the stall is you most likely won't be able to brake stall it to its stall speed. For example I have a 4000 stall converter and I can only brake stall it to a little over 3000. My old converter was a 3400 stall and I could only foot brake it to 2200 or so. Most converters like to be launched off idle or with just a little rpm. Once you figure out what stall you need you will have to experiment with what works best for your car. Also don't cheap out with the converter i learned the hard way...... twice.
