The Jetaway I'm familiar with ('56 and up big cars) did not use torque converters, and stall could not be changed.

ST300 was very similar to the VIP (Variable pitch) Dynaflow used in '55 and up Buicks. Stator blades were fixed, and stall was changed by a redirection of ATF to the stator.

TH400 stator blades had two positions. Stall was changed by changing their position.
