Default Trailblazer converter. Whos tried it?

Got a buddy that works at a GM dealer. He can get me a TB converter pretty cheap. For those interested, the part # is 24215557. Figured Id give it a shot for the hell of it. What is the STR of the TB converter. I know the stock 5.3 is 1.9. Who has tried one, who is currently running one? Might help me out with my cam...... No clue..

Im probably gonna throw this 2800 back in but I think its to loose for my taste. May end up with something like the TrailBlazer converter. Matt, let us know what you find out about the price.

Im curious what the TB STR is versus the 5.3 verters 1.9. PartickG said it will stall to 2600 behind the 5.3.
