stall converter, best mod for an auto. Do a search, you'll find a ton of good info about them here.

Sure, rev the thing up in netral and slam it down into drive. Instant drivetrain shock quickly follows...

and will battle tank his poor 4l60e


for your car though man, i suggest a smaller stall in the 2800 to 3200 area. Look into vigalant, TCI, yank and many others! they are all sponsors so take a look at that cool bar on the right side of your screen -------->

I would do the same thing BigBronco said. Just add a 2800 stall and you will be ok.
I would go with a Vig or Yank. Ive had 4 different Vigs and love them.

I don't recommend TCI. If you do some research you will find taht a lot of people have problems with them. Mine fried my transmission.
