3400 to 3000 stall ???
3400 to 3000 stall ??? I have a Fuddle 3400 stall in my car currently which needs to be changed, I was thinking about going with a performabuilt 3000 stall. How much of a change is there really going to be in performance and mpg? I was only planning on running Nittos, so I think even 3400 might have been overkill.
I think you'll be happy enough with 3000. I'm not going past
3500 myself. My TCI 3000 was a pretty good little converter
as far as the performance went, and smooth. What can they
tell you about the clutch and the balancing? These (slip and
misfire unlocks) are a big chunk of the complaining I see. Not
much advertisement of those quality factors, in a meaningful
way. Hard to know. Worth asking.

Performabuilt has a page with alot of infoe on ther converters http://www.performabuiltautomatics.com/converters.html
But that all sounds like mumbo jumbo to me becuase I don;t know much about converters. But theres alot of talk about high quality,know how, advanced, knowledge that would fool a novice like myself to believe there good converter lol.
With 400 stall speed drop, will I really feel any change in performance or mpg noticable?

well I could publish great detail about every aspect of our converters though I would probably get fired right after that , My understanding is that there are several aspects of out converter build which are completely unique to our units and as such are to be kept that way.
to address a couple common questions
1- what str are your converters = what str do you want ?
2- what converter clutch material do you use = High friction high temp carbon composite NO KEVLAR!
3- How will your high stalls feel in normal drivng = depends on the str you want everythings a compromise ,
4-Whats the rated hp of you converters= The manufacturer says 1200 hp
we rate conservatively to that at 800+ hp
anything else feel free to ask ill answer or if i dont know since Im not the converter guru
Ill find out for you ,

What does varience in STR cause as far as drive feel and mpg?
Yes, I'm just full bolt-ons. I may put a 150 shot and call it quits, at least untill I'm out of college. I have to conserve money for now. The main reasons I'm going with a 3000 is it's cheaper than higher number, will save me some gas money (though I don;t know how much), and think it might be the same as far as performance on Nittos.

My fuddle was a night and day difference form stock under light throttle. THe thing doesn't move till almost 2k.
