    i theorize that a 3800 could be put with a 4wd drivetrain from the early 90's s10's that had the 2.8 motor w/4wd. not sure how the tc/trans would hold up, but that would make the most sense to me.

    I can tell you how well a 2.8 S10 converter will hold up, that is what is in my Cutlass! Is pulling the left front wheel off the ground when I launch good enough for you?

    Gosh, sounds like it needs to be in a Grand Prix too.

    Naaa, thats just the beauty of rwd with an engine that makes gobs of torque down low, good gearing, and tires that work good. I can only stall that converter to 2300 rpm before it pushes the front tires, so if THAT doesnt spell out to people that want to get higher stall converters with an M90 I dont know what will! I also cut mid to low 1.6 60' times with that converter. Stock GTP converters stall to around 3K out of the box and the cars dont hook up either. My original intentions were to get around 3K out of that converter but it didnt work out that way lol, at least the car launches hard with it! When I do upgrade the converter for the turbo upgrade it will be in the 2800-3200 range.
