Here's a pictorial on replacing the stock RAM 1500 Hemi TCC with a KJ CRD TCC, presumably to get higher stall speed where the 5.7L Hemi engine produces greater output power
- just the opposite of what is needed for the KJ CRD engine: lower stall to take advantage of the Diesel power-band
- note the almost zero vane-angle (90* vertical radially) of the KJ TC being installed (the one he's pouring atf into) vs the aggressive vane angles (forward curvature in direction of rotation) of the Hemi TC being replaced (the one on the floor in the background)


OEM-stock Hemi engine specs:
Power (SAE net) 395 hp (291 kW) @ 5,600 rpm
Torque (SAE net) 407 lb.-ft. (548 N•m) @ 3,950 rpm
Max. Engine Speed 5,800 rpm

Hemi TC\C is designed to withstand greater than stock engine output, so is likely rated ~500 lb.-ft.

Even if only rated to 407 lb.-ft., that's still greater than the 300 lb.-ft. rating of the oem factory-installed KJ version

And 7 ft.-lb. more than the EURO version
