torque converter and the CC503... how big is too big?

[CPT]

LOL, you talk about my local guy like he's a shmuck. He built tranny's and converters for Dan Fletcher for years and years and he's got a Wally or 2. Ever hear of him? His massive shop would say that he knows what he's doing. He's been in the game for 25+ years. His name is Carl and he owns Competition Transmission. He's a great guy.

Yeah I realize Art Carr doesn't have the reputation, but it stalled at 5200.

My current converter stalls at 4400. When I depress the tranny brake it hods right there. Maybe my tach is off by 1400rpm according to you.

You boast about that Impala, and it does scoot. I've seen it in person. What is he spraying? Um............north of 250? Not taking away from it's ET, but the tremendous torque spike when the nitrous hits makes for the necessity of a smaller converter. Run that Impala on the motor and tell me what happens. (11's)

A car with a 'brake is a little different. They like more stall.
