Well I've got it all up and running today Thanks to my dad,lol.timed it up and everything drives beautifully just not sure how the high stall is supposed to work properly?? Its a 2500rpm one I don't know if there's anything speacial to do to get it going properly because I tried to stall it up to 2500 but couldn't make it past 1800rpm without wheel spinning. And even just normal driving it feels pretty much the same Any one have any clues?? Will post pics once on the computer

pretty sure a stall convertor will bring up a problem with the ecu and it will go into limp home mode best to check with someone else though , dont jump to the ripped off conclusion yet but mate,
