stall speed question
Posted: Fri Nov 11, 2005 5:46 pm
Does anyone have a graph like Beyonds "engine rpm/ driveline rpm/ acceleration graph" from the other post which shows an engine "on the convertor" after a shift. What I am trying to find out is, when the car shift from 1st to 2nd gear (th350) does too high a stall speed hurt acceleration?
Example: I have a 5000 stallspeed and shift 1-2 at 6500. This should drop my rpms to 3900 or so. But having a 5000 stall convertor puts me at 5000 rpms. Does acceleration suffer until the convertor locks up?
I asked the same question over at speedtalk.com, and most people say run the high stall speed.
