700r4 stall converter question

I posted this over in 'Engine and Drivetrain' but go no response. Thought I'd try here:

Re: 700r4 stall converter question

I have a 3,000 stall TQ in my truck and it works great. Under light throttle, it drives just like it did with a stock converter, it's just when you apply a little extra throttle that it spools up a little higher. My tranny is fine so far, I did adjust my TV cable a little farther out so it would hold the gears a little longer though. Hit me up if i can answer anymore questions. I hope this helped.

smoky02, thanks for your response. This is what I was hoping to hear! Unfortunately, it will probably be spring before I get a chance to try it out.

Actually it looks like you got a lot of responses in your other thread. Please be advised that double posting is against site rules. I'm closing this thread since the other has more responses and merging would just be too confusing.
