    You need a re-tune. And 5000rpms is probably slipping. Is your new stall a lock up type stall? Some stalls do not have lock up capability. You really need a re-tune if you went from a stock converter to a higher stalled one.

    Shift points will change, Line pressure will change for shift firmness, Maybe some fuel and timing adjustments and LOCK UP timing.

    When you mat the throttle pedal the PCM unlocks the convertor clutch and then you accelerate at the mercy of the stall convertor's STR value.

    I would like to know what you call brake stall ? .... is this a TCI converter? or something else.... Pump the brakes 3 times and Get on the gas and see how high the tach reads before it starts to spin the tires... 3600 really?? Mine is a 3200 and foot brakes 2400+... goes to about 2800 under half throttle power... and I feel like mine was Very lose All motor and no power adder... On boost it seems to do pretty well ...

    I wouldn't be too worried about it man...I am serious--it's all in the tune. Go get a new tune and then let us know how it feels...

    well i guess worrying was right it blew up this morning ,felt a few shutters and the next redlight nothing f ,it .i wonder if the tune would have made a difference if i didnt try driving it this weekend?thanks for all the help,im putting a smaller converter in this time ,i think it was tooo gig anyway,i dont think tune would have helped it in first they way it had too rev through 1-2 shifts any way .
