Can't do a burnout???
 
My transmission went out a while ago so I replaced it with a built 4l60e from monster trans, and in order to get the three year warranty I had to order a torque converter too. The torque converter that I ordered was a 1800-2000 stall that was supposed have a 400-500 RPM over stock stall speed. I got it all installed and first of all the torque converter is loose in traffic, and secondly I can't do a burnout anymore?!

Well first of all the stock converter is a 1800 stall speed so if it's 400-500 over stock then you have at least a 2200 stall rating on the new one. That low still shouldn't really make the car feel much looser if at all. Not sure about the burnout problem. I have trouble sometimes because my car just overpowers the brakes and its just bolt-ons with no tune :(

On a side note, problems like these are reasons why people on this board advise staying away from Monster...

I've never heard anything bad about monster?

Here's a couple threads. There are more reviews for 3rd gen guys that use the 700R4
