That's a thought. I had the 2800 stall in and it got out of the hole quicker. But not snap your neck hard. Had it dyno tuned and at that time it made peak torque at 4400 RPM and peat HP at 5400 RPM. 236rwhp and 250 ft.lbs.
I changed the converter to something I thought would be a tighter harder launch. I'm beginning to think its a combination of a tall rear gear ratio on a AOD that just toms thorough a very narrow power band.

A tighter converter is not gone to make it come out of the hole better. and more gear will lessen the convert stall even more. more power or get the converter restalled to make it get up into the power band better. Edge can make that thing hit the tire harder if you ask him it wont last for a long time once it hits but it can be done.
