>>Do you do a lot of street racing or drags/bracket racing? If the
engine is
pretty much stock, get the Chrysler dyno curve specs for your engine and
use the torque curve ... <snip>.....
.... The max RPM on your tach is your stall speed of
the converter.<<

I do some racing, but it's a daily driver. I still want it to be
comfortable and driveable in bad weather. I don't have access to a Dyno
or anything, just because I don't think the truck will make it to the
nearest Dyno... it vibrates really bad at any speed... and idle.. it's
about gone...
I would do what you siuggested as far as the brake thing, but I don't
have a tach....

does a stall really effect driveability that much? I mean, if I'm goin to
have to make a compromise like not drive it in the rain, or have to take
off at 2000 rpms at every stop light, then I don't think a stall is where
I'm comin' from...

this is startin' to suck =(
