Default How much stall for my new setup?

I previously had a cam/spray setup that made 380 NA and 540 with a 150 shot. I'm running a th400 with a precision industries vigilante converter and I could only foot brake it to 2300 rpms.
Now i'm sending off the converter to get restalled and my new setup will be should be around 480 NA and 750 n20 flywheel hp. I want to be able to foot brake it to at least 3200 rpms. I was thinking a 4000 stall would be appropriate. Anybody have some thoughts on this??

If this is a track only car then yes big is most of the time better. But with more more rwhp I would say about 3200 stall. If this is a street car most of the time the 2800 too the 3200.

A 4000 stall would work fine but you cant make it to loose as it will drive thru with the jug on. give me a call and we can discuss your options. 1-866-726-8358

Thanks for the offer but I have to much invested in my vigilante. I decided to go with a 4000 stall.
