People going around talking about "buying a stall." no. you don't buy a stall. you buy a higher stall converter. UGH!
this makes me cry.
ive picked that lingo up from LS1tech and other forums. Its just a shortened up version so you dont have to type "higher stall converter" although a stock converter can stall up to a MASSIVE 1600rpm, its is still a stock converter, therefore we call it a stock converter. ive only seen the phrase "higher stall converter" twice, one of these times is from you lol. Go on tech' and look at the fellas who run automatic cars with a stall in it. alot of people will have it say like heads, cam, stall or bolt ons, gears, stall. shortened up version. many people say it that way.
