Ok well I found out why my converter wasn't seating right. There is an issue with the hub of the converter....it was cracked somehow(perhaps when I installed it wrong when the converter wasn't seated).

But that's beside the point now.


Since they're gonna have to go in there and fix it anyways, they said they'll restall it for free.


My question is.....what would y'all have it restalled to. I know yanks are notorious for being tight so I'm thinking I should have it restalled to around 3600-3800. It's a 245mm converter with a 2.5 STR.

As it sits, it's currently a ss3200 but I wouldn't mind it being a ss3800 or so.


The truck is my daily driver, but 90% of the miles are highway so I doubt I'd hate the high stall THAT much driving it.

EDIT- mods are: 224/224 comp cam, longtubes,intake,full exhaust, efans, efi live software, and stock gears for now. This is going in my 2wd 5.3L ext cab too

 

I know after driving DLH2006's truck with the yank 3600 convertor i am a beliver!!
That stall drives about the same a TB stall to me. Takes off and gets goin around 2000rpms 2200 at most.
I'm sure a 3800 woudn't be much worse....i mean it's only 200rpms.

 

SS3600 Ftmfw!

 

Yea I'm pretty sure i'm gonna have it restalled to 3600. Should be plenty good.


It's actually a sstb3200 right now which means it's built to stall about 3200 in a tbss. I may have them up it to 3800 since I don't make power down low like a stock ls2 engine does.

 

word on the ss3600, after driving a truck with one, i like it alot better than my tt3000.

 

+1 on 3600!

 

i got 18 MPG city and highway combined with my 3600, I love it! BTW city ****** sucks here so id imagine i would be around 20 just interstate.
