You are talking about a torque converter. Stall is refering to what RPM it engages. It depends on the design of the converter and how much torque your engine produces. Imagine if you turn on a fan, then sit another fan in front of the first. The first fan will cause the second fan to turn even though the second has no power applied. The torque converter works the same way only it uses fluid as a medium instead of air. The Pitch of the blades is what determines the RPM you will take off at. Just remember that if you get a higher stall torque converter, you will produce more heat and reduce the life of the transmission if you don't get a transmission cooler.
