The Boss Hog 48402 is a Night Stalker series lock-up torque converter for the GM 700R4 and 200-4R (298mm) automatic transmissions, on the 27-spline three-step input shaft. It runs a 2,200 to 2,800 RPM stall and is designed to strengthen the weak points of the factory converter with a much thicker, stronger lock-up liner, a modified heavy-duty stator, an extreme-temp heavy-duty O-ring, and new Torrington-style encased bearings so it handles more power and runs cooler. It uses the factory 12 in core, a 10.75 in bolt circle, and a factory 1.703 in crank pilot. Note the 27-spline input, which sets it apart from the 30-spline 48442; count the smaller set of splines to confirm. Every unit is leak and pressure tested, digitally balanced, and made in the USA.

What is the stall speed?
The 48402 has a 2,200 to 2,800 RPM stall. Advertised stall varies with your vehicle setup.
Is this a lock-up converter?
Yes. It uses an extreme-duty lock-up with a thicker, stronger liner than the factory converter.
How is this different from the 48442?

Which Boss Hog series should I choose?
Boss Hog groups these converters by build level. Night Stalker suits stock to mild combinations, Street Bandit is the step up once you have upgraded two or more items such as intake, heads, headers, exhaust, cam, or gearing, and the Out Law racing series is for power adders like nitrous, a supercharger, a turbocharger, or a trans brake.
