3600 is the most common stall in an LS1 and would work well with a stock car. With good tires and I cant stress that enough you could see about a half of a second drop in your ET.

Definatley one of the first mods you should do. If its a daily driver, make sure to get a lock-up converter to help out with gas mi. Also, your gonna need a tranny cooler. B&M sells a good external mount cooler for about 75$. Tranny temps really increase with the addition of the stall. Will prolong the life of your tranny..

A stall is great, but you also need to also have the right tires to hook up. I use a 3200 stall for my DD and It has great street manners.

im going to try to research it more or even see if there is some kind of video up somewhere cause i dont get how it works.....i dont know what it will do to me driving it daily, i picture the car not doing anything till it gets to 3200 in every gear and then you stop at the light and try to go but you cant till you get to 3200.....i wish there was someone here in tampa with it so i can drive their car....someone had a video of it from inside of the car and it shows ho it works

I have a 4000 stall with 373 gears, 2500rpm easily keeps up with traffic.

I highly recommend a stall for a LS1 car. It will dramatically increase performance with very little downside.

A properly built 3200 stall converter will still maintain great street manors. The 3200 means flash, meaning when you are WOT the RPM's will jump up to 3200 and the car will start to accelerate. Under light throttle, daily driving, it will drive almost like stock. If you take your foot off the brake while in gear, it will still move. It will take a little more throttle to get it moving, but nothing like you are thinking. The car will start moving with just a little gas. It is one of the best mods for the car dollar wise and guaranteed to put a big smile on your face. But as previously suggested, get some sticky tires.

Here's an in car video with a 3600 stall.

My personal recommendation is a Vigilante converter. Lots will recommend Yank as well. I will also say that the Circle D converters definitely look promising, I just don't have enough experience with or around them to say much.

I used to run a Vig 3200 with a TR224 cam, and think it's a great combination for street/strip.

is TCI a good brand stall or is there better out there? Im lookin at their super street fighter 3500 stall. also want to put 3.73 gears when i do the stall also for some nice ETs

they are not recommended usually. i honestly wouldn't even look at anything that wasn't a yank, vig., or a circle d. just my opinion though. there is a reason why tci's cost less.

happy with my vig 3200 stall!! it does drive and feel like stock. its what i wanted. the car is all street and never will see the track so i didnt want to go with a huge verter.
