It will stall higher. You can get by with that converter but ideally you want something larger.

By comparison, my T88 / 406ci combo requires me to have a 5000 rpm 8" converter.

Since you dont race it as often, a smaller converter might be what you want.

Just some food for thought.

Default converter with turbo question.

right now i am running a Yank ST3500 and the turbo is officially on the way. with roughly 600rwtq, will my converter be alright? i know that noone can say yes or no, but is it an ok choice (safe?) seeing as i dont think i have the money to drop on the Yank pye series. the car isnt raced often, maybe 3-4 times a year. any and all input is appreciated. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
