Essentially as the title states, what’s roughly the best estimate for a regularly driven car with the HO setup? I’ve seen numbers as high as 3000, which sounds like it’ll hurt economy even more than normal.
I know the factory AOD converter stalls around 1600-1800, and makes the car feel numb, but I expected that. Since mine has to come out, now is a good time to try and rectify that.
Does a 2200-2500 stall converter sound adequate in a car our weight, or do I need to shoot a touch higher? I’d like to keep a lock up converter for fuel economy, but I don’t want to also wind up in a situation where the shift from 2-3 breaks the direct input shaft under WOT conditions.
