I've been looking at new torque converters and shift kits...

My number one question is what stall speed should I be looking to get for the torque converter..I've seen anything from stock speed to 2500 rpm.

And I found one that supports up to 500ft-lbs of torque...which I think would be perfect because I don't ever expect my truck to put out anymore than that\


What do you guys think?

 

IMO I would go with the torque one... Sounds better...

BTW how much your tonnue cover cost?

 

It came on the truck from the factory...the original owner ordered this truck with it on there...its pretty cool cuz its got a cargo light built in underneath that activates with the dome light

so answer Idk how much it was lol i would imagine like $1200

 

eeks costly for just a cover but if it came with it then props to you. very cool lookin but dunno if im willing to fork over that much money

 

yeah i wouldnt either lol it was a nice selling point for the truck i do have to say

 

What are you planning to do with the stall?
Unless you are trying to get a better jump off the line, a stall isnt really gonna be very helpfull.

You may notice some improvements in intial takeoff but a sharp decline in higher rpms as these magnums dont rev very high and lose power(torque) before redline.
A stall for your truck in my opinion would be a waste of money.
I wouldnt stall one until I had done a complete top end rebuild with a good manifold,heads, and a nice cam(something in the .570" range)

I had a 2600 stall in my Trans am and it wasnt very noticable at all.

 

Stick with the stock stall or a little lower. The power band on these engines is not very high, its mostly down low.

 

wat is the stock stall?
