Here's a light throttle looking at before and after it seems like 400 rpm looser... I'll have the comparison of one vs another in a new thread tomorrow

Not the same but definitely not too much looser.. takes about 200-300 rpm more to get around.. I'll post YouTube videos of 3600 vs 4000 at part throttle driving later today.. and mines a sst 4000.. difference between both was explained earlier.. apparently sst r a little bit tighter since they r made for heavier trucks vs the ss which is made for cars

This is all personal preference. If you dotn mind cruisign with the RPM's higher then I guess looser isnt worse. But having the RPM's higher means more noise and worse gas mileage. That is generally why people prefer a "tighter" converter for cruising. Everybody wants a converter that will pop you right in the meat of the power ban off the line though... its a fine line to walk down.
The looser you go with the converter the less efficient they get at high speeds WOT as well.
I've come to the conclusion the only solution is MORE POWER

Rfugio68: yes tighter is better for diving around town.. my3200 was much more like stock to drive around... its one thing or the other lol...
@ vortec350ss yes its looser than stock and yes louder and yes it waste more gas but so much more fun to drive lol... and efficiency at high speed wot.. well depends this this thing picks up much better than my stock converter on a 70-100 punch..I'll post videos
