Default converter question

but first a rant...

i sell my 2600 stall and get a 3200. install the 3200 and loved it. nice and loose. it actually felt like a stall. i was driving it around for about a week with the open longtubes. i just had the y pipe put back on and now i cant tell the difference between the 3200 and 2600 trailblazer it got WAY tighter. does that mean i lost torque with the y pipe or does it mean i gained and thats why it dosent feel as loose/mooshy. beau rode with me last night with the open longtubes and got to see how loose the converter. im going with a 3500 next time

helll you can ride in mine if you think yours feels stock, my truck moves on 1200 rpms and it will drive by itself in drive at 650 rpms now that is stock feeling, but I do pull some good 60' times with the stock converter lol.

i need to get it on the track to see whats up. mine feels the exact same and i cant get a flash number because the tires break too soon. it only brake stalls to about 2400 before gettin the tires goin. im thinkin 3500 stall next time i get it rebuilt which shouldnt be too long
