Ok... an experience based suggestion.
The convertor in my car seems to stall around 3500 by the normal test. I dunno, I really don't care about the "stall" as long as it does what I want it to.
I have 4.30 gears with 28 inch tall tires, a GV overdrive, car weights 4000lbs, convertor tightens up nicely around 3,000 when at low throttle input, as I asked PTC to make it that way as that is where I cruise. Convertor doesn't really do anything in drive until I blip the throttle to 1200-1500, which is fine.
Camshaft is in the 240-250@.050 area in a 447ci FE. I run a trans cooler that is massive.... because I drive like an idiot.
When I called PTC I told them the cam specs, the gearing, car weight, engine size, anticipated torque, cruise rpm, tire size, and EXACTLY what I wanted out of the convertor. I think I talked to a fella named Lane. Nice enough guy.... I'd previously filled out a questionaire about all this, he was really just calling to confirm and chat a bit to make sure we did it right the first time. Took them a month to make the convertor, which he told me about up front.
My truck? Shoot, I dunno, I think it's an autozone special that I found in the dirt at a junkyard. 10 years and still tickin. I've got a spare 10inch convertor I keep threatening to put in the truck, because I hate fuel economy.
The real artistry in convertor design is not based around "stall" it is the inbetweens... To make that happen, it seems you need to give the maker a realistic expectation of operational parameters.
Anyway, good luck.
