    I've got a 2500 stall and 3.45's in my N/A Ecotec and it's nice and punchy off the line. There's an eBay seller that's builds them to order for about half the price of B&M.

    Absolutely. Retains the factory lock up on the highway and behaves like a stock converter when your granpa-ing it around town, and then flash stalls to around 2700rpm when you mash th pedal. Maybe even higher in yours because you'd be making a lot more power than me.

    That's the rpm it will stall to when you go wide open throttle.
