Default Trailblazer Convertor

I am currently getting my 4l60e rebuilt and I'm getting a torque convertor from a I6 trailblazer. They're supposed to stall at 2600 behind an ls1. It'll be pretty much a full bolt-on car. What et can expect to gain from the tb convertor? If any at all.

I doubt that GM would ever have a 2600 stall speed in a stock vehicle, but perhaps something like a 1900 stall speed in the heavy Trailblazer might equate to 2600 stall in a lighter car.

However, I know little about converters; hopefully a more knowledgeable person can answer your question.

it was about 2200 in the I6 trailblazer... behind an ls1 with more torque they stall around 2600.

Ah, forgot that some Trailblazer were 6 cyclinder.
Perhaps the more important question is whether the converter can handle this much more torque.

The TB convertor was the first one I tried in my 2000 TA.
Along with shorty headers and a o/r Y pipe and Nittos
I managed ET's in the 12.7 range and 1.7-1.8 60'
