Default Circle D 3200 stall ?

I been really leaning towards the Circle D 3200 stall, just wanted to hear some reviews from people that run that stall? My future plans are 224r cam and ported 243 heads, would I be leaving alote on the table only running a 3200 stall with that cam and heads?

Go for 3600-4000 range,you'll put the 3200 and then be saying,Damn I wish I had gone 4000 ! Always happens !
what's your rear gear,2.73 or 3.23 ?

I had the 3200 from circle d when I was just boltons 12.20
I put afr 205s, cam, and fast 92 intake andwent 11.9....

Then swapped to a bigger converter from circle d and went 11.30

That should tell u that it will leave a lot on the table

The HP series converter is hard to beat for the price. Considering our next level of performance is twice as expensive. Great for a bolton daily driver type car that wants more flash rpm. Let me know if you have any questions.

How was the 3200 on the street as far as daily driving? and your right 400$ for the HP series is a killer price.

What about from a roll when you hit it, right now my car feels sluggish when you punch it from a roll feels like the stock stall is killing the car.

Any converter will help and be better than a stock one... Just give Chris at circle d a call and tell him why ur plans are for your car and he can get u what is best.. hell call several converter companies and see what they say too

If you order by the end of the month, you can get free shipping as well. Either use offer code July at checkout or give us a call at the office on monday.

I have the 3k to 3200 and 2.73 gears I bought the stall cause it matches the range on the cam I got the torqer 2.. car seems kinda sluggish I guess because of the gears it has.. from a dead roll I can get it to spin an slide sideways a bit.. but moving I cant seem to tell a difference... maybe when the cam is installed I can but im always too damn busy. people say I need to lower and turn off the TM for the trans but not sure if that will help or not

So you didnt notice any difference from a roll with the 3200 stall.

I have a Circle D 3200 in my 5th gen, went 12.0@113 stock internal and bolt-ons only. Have gone back to back 1.66 60 foot times.

For heads and cam thinking to go to their 3600 or 3800.

Nice numbers. I was thinking about ordering thier 3600 stall I really just want to get rid of the dead spot I have when I punch it from a 40 roll and help my 60ft right now the best I have been able to manage is a 2.0 60ft with mickey et streets.

Ya I know some of the shops around here charge like 400-500$ for install not including fluid. Luckily my brother works at Ford and I can use the lift and trans jack.
