Quick question that's bothering me...
I read everyone wanting to put a still convertor on their trucks...
I'm not very smart with automatic transmissions, but is this something you can only put on auto's? Or can manuals have them, as well? |
:icon_google:
|
I tried... google sucks... it just brought up a buncha sites that sell them... :(

...I know how mine works?
|
Although, I didn't know that with no torque converter, I didn't need a trans cooler...
|
Are you referring to a stall converter? If so, this is just a misused name for a torque converter with a higher than factory stall rating. Torque converters are only found on automatics (does the same job as the clutch in a manual). The stall rating is basically the rpm that the torque converter can safely be ran up to without the vehicle moving.
|
That is why mine is flashed @ 4000 rpm.

Ohhhhhhhh...... ya stall, not still... haha
Got ya... thanks dude... But if it does the same thing as a clutch... ...if, let's say, you have a 2700rpms stall converter, and I have my clutch in, revving to 2700rpms, and I let out the clutch, it'll burn the clutch, unless I dump it, where then, I'll just spin... so therefore, a stall converter is better for higher rpm launches? Correct? |
