Torque Converters

What cam?

When a converter flashes it is to the stall number.

3000 stall, when you romp on the go peddle the engine rpm's will come up to that 3000 mark and the converter will engage and launch the car.

The advantage of a higher stall is to put you in the engines/cams power band to help get the car moving instead of a sluggish take off and then getting into it.

I installed an HE268 in my teen and it was very sluggish from take off. I swapped out the 2.76 ratio to 3.55 and that helped some. I still need to install a 3200 stall converter to achieve my goal.

Your best bet is to have a converter built specifically for your combo. You will need to provide the builder with the cars weight, engine, cam spec's, rear gears,tire size AND intended usage of the car in order to get optimal performance for street driving and racing if that's what you intend to do.

Hope this helps a little.
