I don't know how it compares to the sinster converter as I have never had one. I can only compare it to an IPT restall that I had previousily. Remember that stall is a function of the engine, intake cam timing, fueling, nitrous, and compressor map of the turbocharger. For my application, getting it to 4k on the foot brake, was adequate, being that it was a 2.3 with a GT4294 turbo. In addition, I used a small shot of nitrous, to help it get their sooner.

Stall is where the torque converter locks up, correct?. The interested guy is looking at a Sinister with a 3500 stall, so he was wondering what the stall on this convertor would be. He does not plan on using nitrous to spool his 6266.

Well not exactly, it is the point, where based on what the Torque of the engine is at that given rpm point, where it will NO longer go higher, until the engine makes more torque ( raise rpm based on gears) ... a 6266 is significantly smaller than a gt4294, I don't see him having a problem building at least 10 psi of the line and stalling to 4k quickly, if his set up is balanced enough to handle that, i.e intake cam timing, fueling requirements etc etc

Lock up really isn't the case, its more of the k factor if anything else. LMK if you have any furthur questions, I will be happy to answer them to the best of my ability

Mind if I ask why you are selling it? How loose was it just normal driving?

I saw the other pics on dsmtuners it's a 4 lug, who even makes an 8 lug converter to use with the kiggly flexplate for a 1g? Would it be crazy to weld extra lugs onto it?

Selling as I am parting the car out. You can have a converter shop weld on the additional pads if required.

From my experience Tighten it as much as you can and it won't come loose with red lock tite.

It was in my drag car, so I have not idea what it would do on the street.
