This was back before i worked for DI, but I know it was a few hundred more than stock. That being said, the converter is so much more efficient that I'm VERY happy that I didn't get a lower stall converter. These converters are HEAVY, and therefore, they have LOTS of energy behind them once you spin them up. I think you will like a stall that is near stock or a little higher.
Generally yes (not always).....there is so much that goes into one it can get complicated.
In my Trailblazer SS I had a Vigilante (made by Precision) converter rated at 1900 RPMs that took lots of pedal to move the vehicle. When I broke the snout off the converter I went to a 2400 Yank that drove like stock, was very "tight" but would still break stall on up to close to 2300 RPMs.
If your transmission is in good shape, a shift kit and converter can help it live, but it shouldn't be used to save a dying one.
