Will I have to worry about having as much low end since I will be launching at a higher RPM? When my truck was stock, the low end was pitiful, wouldn't even do a burnout if I stood on the brake. Now, it'll start to spin the tires at about 1k and leave two long black stripes on the road. Should I now consentrate on the high end? Put a more free flowing muffler on and use a K&N filter for more high end. In the past, those two items actually cost me low end is why I'm not using them now. What you think? Yes I'm asking this time but please be nice!? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

With your "restalled" stock converter, you're not going to see a big difference in performance except from a dead stop. Because of this, you'll still need to work on low-end torque I'm sorry to say. Higher stall converters add more shift extension, which minimize the dependance of low end torque (because the shift drop-back rpms are much higher than stock), but with your 2400, you will only gain around 100 rpms in shift extension. What this means is you will not be seeing a lot higher rpms when you jab the throttle from a roll vs. the stock converter. Just trying to control your expectations. Don't be expecting a night and day difference.
