Does anyone know what the stall speed for the H3 torque converter is? Looking through the manual at testing the line pressure, you test at 1200 rpm but it warns not to exceed 1500 rpm. Is 1500 stall speed? I also see a reference to 40-45 mph, but am not sure what that is tpm on 32/33" tires.

I'm looking at a PATC Raptor Level 3 transmission, wondering what stall speed would be best. I am pretty sure I want the stall speed at or below the lockup speed in 4th, right?

Thanks! I drove my wife'swife's H3 yesterday and it seemed like it was about 1450, so that's good to vknow. PATC doesn't list that low of a stall speed but I bet they could do it if asked.

If you want to throw a bigger stall in go ahead. Remember we have a lock up converter. So stall speed only matters when you hit the go pedal.
