Smile Turbo 400 Factory Stall Speed

Thank You Steve P.,
I believe that should I decide to change the torque converter in my 69 GTO which has a stock 3.23 10 bolt rear end it will be one that has a 2000-2200 rpm stall speed which is 800-1000 rpm below peak torque at 3000 rpm (Thank you 68gtoMN for that info). One thing I've learned is to match the car's capabilities with the right match of performance parts and to not overdo it. I had a friend back in high school who had a 72 Dodge Charger with a 318 and he put a Holley 850 double pumper on it and I had a 69 Mustang with a 302 2 Barrel and he couldn't touch me.
