Is there any way to tell if car as a high stall converter?
The reason I ask is I had a rebuilt trans and converter installed. Both were supplied by my warranty company.

After the install, I noticed that the trans seems to slip in part throttle. If I give the car half throttle, the rpms will hover around 2800-3000 while accelerating - it feels like a CVT.

There is no slip at full throttle.

Sometimes I also notice that the RPMs will climb a couple hundred between shifts while cruising.

Is there any way for me to find out if I got a higher stall converter for sure?

haters crazy
Put the car in drive. Hold the brake and push the gas. How high does the rpm get before it pushes the car forward?
