I would guess he is talking about foot braking it and it's only going up to 1900 RPMs...?

I would never put a converter in my car if it came out of a car with a failed trans, especially numerous times.

What does it flash to?

1900rpm sounds tight but not completely out of the ballpark for a brake stall especially if you are just saying higher than that it turns tires over

If the tires in question are not something at least as sticky as a 555R drag radial, I wouldn't worry about it.

As long as the converter is hitting 3600rpm or so when you stab the throttle over about half throttle I bet all is fine.
