    Trying to pick a converter

     



    I,m trying to pick one of these converters all are from FTI.
    1. 9.5". 2400-2600 stall
    2. 9.5" 2600-2800 stall I,m thinking this one.
    3. 9.5". 2800- 3000 stall.
    4. 12" 2400-2600 stall.
    Car is a 2dr 56 Chevy
    3:73 rear gear
    27" tire
    700r4 trans
    L31 vortec 350
    Heads have been modified to accommodate higher lift cam.
    Cam is a lunati 2008130
    Adver. Dur. 278/288
    Dur. @ .050 219/229
    .503 lift int/exh.
    1800-5800
    Full length headers
    670 street avenger carb.
    Has a 2100 stall converter now, very sluggish off the line.
    Not alot of experience with torque converters, but I do know I need a higher stall to get this to move quicker off line. My problem is knowing how much more. It,s my street car,. But needs to be fun.
