Is a 3400 stall being used when a cars rpm is 3500 and above?

 

Way to be a dick. Not many people gonna help with that attitude. If its flashing that high something is fubar.

 

It's a sunday night, give it more than 2 hours.

I read the post earlier and can't make much sense of it.

To answer that, if you're cruising on flat ground with no tcc applied then it should be coupled fairly good. But if any load or more throttle is applied then it most likely will be looser than stock and go up to a higher rpm. Depends on how efficient the converter is.

Your right, it didn't make that much sense, I apologize. I rewrote my question.

 

The point of a stall is to get the car up in to the powerband. So when you hit it from an idle the rpms will raise up to the stall setpoint using the better power that's available higher in the band(if you get traction).

But also your stall affects your shift extension, which is how many rpm you drop between shifts. A racing converter will be set up for only about 900rpm shift extension. So if you shifted at 6000 it would drop to 5100 and go up from there until you shift again.

 

Why would you need a stall to change your shift extension? Cant you tune the car for that?

 

How the stall is built dictates shift extension. For example: My car off the bottle will drop 1700rpm after a shift. On the bottle it will only drop 900rpm. My converter is built to be its most efficient while on nitrous. If it were an NA only converter it would drop 900 rpm all the time. Thats why a converter company needs all the info about your particular setup. To build the best converter for your application.

 

So the answer to my question is "NO" the torque converter is not used after 3400 rpm. The only thing it does after 3400 rpm is change shift extension.

If I am not right please correct.
