Re: Best torque converter for 383 stroker?

I agree with calling the manufacture and seeing what there recommendation is. But with that cam, I would recommend going with 1800-2100.

I am going to be swapping to a LT4 hot cam with 218/228 duration 525/525 lift 112lsa. I plan on doing a 1800-2100 stall on mine. I may be shorting it on getting the full potential out of the cam, but the higher stall you run the higher the temp of your trans will run. So, I would recommend a lower stall since you plan on street driving and a little hot rodding added into it. That's the reason I am going to be running 1800-2100, for street purposes and not burning up a brand new $1300 transmission.
