Now heres the prob i called edge converters back the 1st time i was told they could get 3000rpm stall outa the mild converter which is 300 buck now he's saying i'd have to buy the 500$ one the high performance converter what should i do and know any other companies? and would this idea work to use (just an example) use like a 5000rpm stall v8 converter to get the lower stall like around 3000 on my slant six? help please

Thanks Kevin

Call them and tell them what you want to do. Should be around $400.

I got a 10" street converter from Midwest that stalled 3000 behind a stock slant for $318 shipped to my door. That was a ferw years ago. I don't think prices have gone up too much. IIRC, Fred is the guy you want to talk to.

A converter that stalls 5000 behind a small block will still stall almost 4500 or so behind a Slant. 3000 should be a piece of cake. :lol:

Thanks guys ya i was thinking of the v8 converter idea but then i though hmm it'll probably be more or just as exspensive since it's got a huge stall rating not to mention if it would fit my 1964 engine and 1974 tranny.

Thanks Kevin

Make sure to tell them you have a small register crank or you will get a late converter that will not fit your motor.
