Default Want to start a video thread of converters!! Help

Hey guys been lots of questions on converters

Thought we could start a thread of converter videos to refer people to search when deciding on a converter/gears. Also stock converters with different tunes/shift points. Would like for the videos to contain daily driving manners of the converter and of course WOT pulls!!

Start posting or somebody eventually move this post to a more appropriate location.

Thanks to those who are interested!

I'm in for this, great idea! I know a lot of guys are running 3000+ stall converters in there DD's and love it, but the little girl in me is still scared to pull the trigger on one over 2600.

Well if you want to just get them in the ballpark just look at the converter diameter and rated stall speed

Seems like a good idea.... Should give guys a ballpark idea on what different stalls drive like. Definitely want to include diameter and rated stall like mentioned above. Hope to see this thread grow.

I thought it was a good idea..

I know I fit into the category this thread would apply to. I understand the variables argument, but since I have never driven or even rode in a vehicle with a higher than stock stall, I'd like to see some examples.
If this thread goes anywhere I'd like to see some non WOT, off the line accelerating.
