Re: What stall speed would you pick?

I bought a reconditioned trans. with converter off ebay from a trans place in florida, the one I bought was supposedly rated for 400 HP (basicly a stock build with heavy duty parts, and stock converter. the other choice was one with heavier duty parts, higher shift points, 500 HP, and the higher stall speed converter. since its for daily driving and never beating it I was afraid to go to the higher stall, higher shift points. I don't know for sure, but if I'm doing 50 mph, does the higher stall converters mean it will be slipping more at that speed? Maybe not, but didn't want overkill for a stock setup.. unless you have a real lopey cam, the 402 with 4.88 gears will leave the line like a bear.http://www.ebay.com/itm/2004R-200R4-...3D181711575750 The price is lower now than when I bought one.
