Recently I made a switch to one of the continental 10" converters and I'm not so happy (I may have had too much PY Kool-Aide). Maybe it's my combo but changing from a generic 13" 2000-2200 stall, I feel like I've lost a lot of mid-range and top end pull. Basically if I punch it from say 30-40 mph it feels like I'm towing a boat, I think it's slipping but not really sure since I'm no converter expert. New stall is supposed to be 2800-3000. Only positive is that the launch is much better. At this point I'm a bit disappointed as I gave a VERY detailed explanation to the well-known Continental re-seller as to my combo and goals and made it very clear I was not going racing with my car. Only reason I considered the change is that my launches were very Jekyll and Hyde, sometime great, sometimes not so great. Comp recommends 2220 stall, so I will start there. Any recommendations? Thanks!
