I want to get a torqe converter, but I'm not sure whether I want/need a non-lockup or lockup. I'm fairly certain a 3,000 stall will be sufficient. I'm getting confused as to what does what for you. Does the lockup automatically lock up, or does it through a switch through the ALDL, or at a certain RPM &/or MPH? This car is for street, not strip so I want some longevity in the transmission.
I've done searches here, but I haven't been able to find one that puts the difference between n/l or lockup in easy to understand terms for us mechanically challenged types. From what I have read the PTS & Yanks sound like winners, my friends who run F bodies use Yanks and love them. The man who set my car up for me said to go with a n/l 3,000 stall, but from what I've read the n/l converters aren't receptive to street driving. Granted, this isn't a daily driver; 5,000 miles in six years.
