3500 stall converter, 2000gt, before and after
So my old torque converter got thrown into my brother bolt on 2000 gt
His best times previously were 13.7s with a 2.05 60 foot
With no changes other than the 3500 stall he was able to drop that time down to a 13.2! His best 60 foot and time with my slicks was 13.22 with a 1.82 60 foot
He ran on his street tires for ****s and giggles and was able to pull a 13.35 with a 1.9 69 foot.
I figured he would pick up more with the slicks but at his power level they didnt help much.
Anyways, thought it would be good piece of info for any automatic guys out there.
Cliff Notes:
3500 stall takes 2000 gt from 13.7 to 13.2 with no other changes

Id like to get an old beater 4.6/5.0 with a stalled/geared auto to run the footbrake/trophy street classes here at the local 8th mile tracks. Me and the wife were just talking about it last night. But then that'll start diggin in to my procharger funds
Nice gains with just the stall!

Me too, but I guess it just doesnt have the power and its also a completely full weight car.
My car did 1.64 60 foot with the same converter for reference but I thought his would do 1.7-1.8s
The 4.6s are weak out of the hole, before the converter the best it would so was 2.05 or so.
yep, its the truth man!
I can tell you this, its insane how consistent his car is lol.
It will run within a tenth 10 times in a row, I swear.

As far as modifications:
2000 gt auto
4.10 gears
accufab tb/plenum with c/l intake
93 octane sct tune
bassani catback exhaust with x pipe
Getting that blower spinning up and going makes all the difference.

Alright so I got some data for you guys
Before:
60: 2.035
330: 5.78
1/8: 8.83
MPH: 80.46
1000: 11.465
1/4: 13.69
MPH: 101.3
After:
60: 1.82
330: 5.41
1/8: 8.42
MPH 81.56
1000: 11.0
1/4: 13.23
mph: 102.28
So you can see that the stall knocked 4 tenths off the 1/8 mile time and increased the MPH 1 mph in the 1/8th.
AS expected from the 1/8th on is about the same, the converter is locked at that point so that's how it should be for the most part.
Heres the street tires slip:
60: 1.93
330: 5.54
1/8: 8.545
MPH: 81.63
1000: 11.15
1/4 13.35
mph : 102.4
I was impressed that the car still picked up a good bit of time even on street tires.
