btw, it's a new trans setup, it's the same as the 4l60e's that come with the 5.3's and stuff,
so any fbody or truck converter should work, right, ls1 that is,
thanks,
allen

From what I understand it is the torque multiplication...the STR. By multiplying the input torque at a given RPM it will make you move easier being more streetable.Quote:

so can you explain that str a little more, it's the amount of power being applied right, so multiply the torque by that number and that's what being generated?
will a higher str be more streetable or less streetable, meaning will i need to push the pedal more to start moving?
looks like the yank 3000 or the yank thruster truck 3200 are the two good options.
i'm really going to buy one of these and it's just not talk, so i want to make sure i'm going to buy the right one,
thanks for the input so far,

The TT3000 is a great converter as is the TT3200. The 3200 is going to be a bit loose feeling getting moving from a dead stop as it is a smaller diameter. But the 3200 is a better all out performer. The higher STR is great for the street...where I do most of my racing. I like the 3000 as you still have full towing capacity incase I decide I want to lose my mind and buy a 20' Pontoon boat. Plus the 3000 is going to feel more like stock also.
If you are going to bust the 12.99 or faster, the 3200 is your best bet. It is more high performance orientated (sp?) than the 3000.
hey, just a thought on yall's converter issue. if we know the torque range of a given engine, then the right stall :burnout: could be obtained for that aplication. considering 1st gear ratio, final drive and bump stick specs. my stall would be in the 28 to 32 with lu, or lower without. joe
Why do you want to haul a pontoon boat? You are planning on having a party I see. Just say hand down for racing and blowing all other away 3200 stall!Quote:

Hey Joe, glad you could make it, we gonna see you online more, it's nice to get some advice
I don't know the curve, never dynoed it, i refuse to pay someone to dyno it, being that i'm so close to getting one, hehe.
I guess a 3200 with an str of 2.2 or above will work, I've gotten some good advice so far, plus i need to call yank just to make sure,
thanks for the info,
allen
I'm trying to be around more, but you know how that goes.
I think that a 3200 stall is going to feel like putting a big, dry sponge between your foot and the gas petal. :laugh: Go to HEB and pick one up for your drive to work tomorrow and call me. :laugh:
