Not sure why?
Guys w/there Syclones Typhoons & Buick GN's, T-Types use high stall lock-up & non lock up converters all the time & never heard anyone describe there OD trans does not like a high stall converter.
If anything, I
advocate for guys (for there street vehicles) to use as tight a stall as needed as not to lose mileage as much,(even though with the lock-up feature mileage is the same) when it seems most guys suggest to run 3400+ stall, if anything,guys w/there high stall converters on the street love the high stall, because it gets into boost much faster.
My parents 1998 Olds Intrigue 3.8 V-6 factory OD trans, brake stalls to 2600, that is the way it came from the factory.
It drives just like a normal low stall converter car would.
Driving it normal, you would not even think it could stall that high, but it does.
