Is there any equation in selecting a torque converters stall speed in comparison to it's equivelence of gear choice with 3:55, 4:10 gears & converters stall speed ?
For example if I have 3:55 gears & oem coverter with a stall speed of oem apx 2600. Compared it to a set up of 3:55 gears & 3000 stall speed converter. Or 3:55 gears & 3500 stall speed converter.
With the converters multiplication how would you figure out the 1st gear change feel due to multiplication & it's equivelence to a feel of rear gear change with a stall speed increase. Would a stall speed increase change make it equivelent to a gear change of say 4:10 feel with 3:55 gears ?

No it will not have a significant effect on the stock stall, the PI 3000/3500 works out very good on a N/A as well as a SC Marauder
