With our converter though you will feel some difference from stock obviously its efficent enough so you will get used to it very quickly.
And I get the call alot with high stalls and our trans "its slipping!" LOL I say na just a different word with stalled cars the OP will be pleased if he gets the right stall.

Go for the stall. Over the last few days I have really enjoyed it. My car ran okay after the cam/head swap and some time for adjusting but now my car drives great. Doesn't surge at stop lights any more, less pressure on the brake petal to keep it from creeping away, hasn't died a single time, even after leaveing my house without adequit warm up time. It also seems to have cured my premature shift issues. Not to mention the kick in the pants it gives you when you get in it. I wish I would have installed this TC 5 months ago when I did the engine work, I was just in a hurry to get it on the road and not waist a single extra kick-*** Florida summer day.

i just put in a TCI 3000 stall and went from 2.73's to 3.73's. It takes a little extra, not much, maybe a few hundred extra RPM to get the car up to speed. This combo woke my car rate up. Before when i was stock i had a hard time spinning the tires off the line. Now with this combo i can easily fry the tires off, even on part throttle no problem. But if i were you, and you plan on keeping the 3.23 gears i reccomend going with a YANK 3600 or something along those lines, theyre know to be pretty tight comverter until you really get on it. BUt dont get all worked up about a converter, I was going nuts, worrying about if it will be streetable and it is totally fine, perfectly streetable. Basically like stock until you get on it as i stated above. Go with something between 3000 and 3600 rpm for a DD stall.

Thanks for all the help!
