A Yank 3400-3600 would be a good stall for you. You don't want a stall too high, especially with that 3.90 gear.

I would set it up per the combo, Not just what does it stall. A turbo converter is different set up than a NA converter or nitrous!!!

Exactly...
That's why I'm not a fan of cookie cutter converters.

I'm wondering what it stalls now, and what it is or isn't doing. Turbo combos can be a PITA to nail down because they need to be loose enough to allow spool but then tight enough to couple.

If you have to sit on the converter that long to get it to spool then you either have the converter set up wrong or the tune in left field or both!!! Not good If you sit on it long enough to cook the fluid!!!
