Ok, I don't actually know **** about them, but I'm pretty sure that the Level 10 you're talking about is the <U>name</U> of one of the companies that makes import torque converters...

yes..

Level 10 is a company.

TQ converters to fully built auto trannies....

They're the place to go if you've got an import.

How do you set the stall speed of the torque converter?

YOU dont set it, they set it for you. when you buy it, they will ask you what you want your stall speed at, you tell them whta you want it at.

All the info you need on their torque converters is there. If you need more of an explanation on what a torque converter is and how they work, here are a few links:

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Honda doesn't recommend testing the stall speed of their torque converters. (Power braking)

What would be a good stall speed to set at if i am going to go forced induction? Because I don't want to have traction problems, just enough to give me a "good" launch with my SS tranny. I'm just gonna mod my car till it can run somewhere around low 13's (mid-high 12's would be very nice ) If I do use nitrous I'm prob. gonna use NX(nitrous express) wet 50 or 75 shot...not sure yet.

get a 5 speed and lsd
I will prob. get the swap after my tranny blows out..hehe

level ten is definitely the best place to go for tranny...they beefed up 2JZ tranny internals and etc..

they're very very good
