Overview

On a drag strip build with a GM automatic, this Outlaw Level Four converter lets the engine rev high before the transmission couples. The shell is compact, with a ten and three quarter inch bolt circle.

A high stall figure suits a cammed engine that makes its power high in the rev range. For a daily driver it will slip more at light throttle, and the listing does not describe lock-up or hub details.

Who it's for

Drag racers and heavy street-strip builds with a high revving engine will use the stall range properly. Someone commuting in traffic should pick a converter with a much lower stall.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • High stall for built engines
  • Small diameter shell
  • Bolt circle size listed
Cons
  • Loose feel in street driving
  • Lock-up status not listed
  • Spline count not listed

Performance notes

A high stall converter lets engine speed climb before the turbine begins to pull the car, so a big cam can sit in its power band at launch. The downside is slip at low speed and extra heat, which is why the unit is aimed at race use.
