What stall converter for TE45a

[vl1500]

What stall converter is needed to get a full body TR into the mid to low 10's using a TE45a turbo?

I was told that you need a 3400-3600 converter.

I ran a3500 stall but I think the a 3800 would have been better.

I ran a PTC 9.5" nonlock 3500 in my GN.....went low 11's on 20-21# of boost and pig rich. I think it could have been a little looser....say 3600-3700...to really make the car come alive, but it worked for what I was doing.

45

I have a 3400 single LU vig. and went 7.30(1/8)on a full weight stocker with only a cam swap and alky. Recorded 31.8 lbs of boost through the traps with 5 degrees of KR. All on pump gas and 10" MT's. Car still drives like it had the D5 in it.

Bilt2run, what kind of "pump gas" are you running to keep the motor together at 31 lbs of boost?

9" 3500 stall is what I have. Its nice but, I want to try a 3800. I have a th-400 so that might change things.

alky

The alky is awesome. I can run 24lbs of boost with 0 KR.

Should one go with a Non L/U or L/u coverter wth this Turbo??

Thinking about switching to the te45A, but have 9" 3400 stall non-l/u converter in it now and wondering what is better??

I am running a custom 9' "tight" 3800 w/ a 45a and it works well......
