Weight and the converter

I agree with the higher hp and torque with better air.

But does XYZ converter stall at say 500 ft lbs no matter what? When you have better air, lets say the torque curve shifts up 10 ft*lbs. What is the phyiscs that sets stall speed? Or is it actually a stall torque that fits particular engines differently due to the engines torque curve?

So in better air, you have to increase rpm more until the torque drops off to the 500 ft*lb value, hence higher stall speed.
