Default Help identifying mystery torque converter

I got a torque converter off ebay a while ago when switching my car to an automatic and I'm pretty sure that the advertised 2000 rpm stall is bogus. What should a 2000 stall feel like?

I did the gas/brake trick and netted a 1000 rpm max before I overpowered the brakes. I think I have enough umph to reach the converter's potential.

Interesting...the same fellow is still selling the same converters but he now fesses up to them being 1500-1600 rpm....

Shouldnt my converter have gone to 1500 rpm's then instead of 1000?
