Default what converter stall speed for a turbo 4.8?

trying to decide on what stall speed i need for my turbo 4.8....it will be a pump gas street car (foxbody) and about 3100lbs

99 4.8
99 LS1 Cam
PAC 1218 springs
LS9 Head gaskets
ARP head bolts and rod bolts


bullseye T4 76mm turbo with a 1.0 AR exhaust side

built TH400

built 8.8 with 3.27 gears




like i said, its going to be a street driven car and looking to make 550-600hp...it wil see the track from time to time..

what stall speed? a local shop reccomends a 10 inch 3200-3500...

this may not be the answer your looking to hear but if it was me, id put in the stocker, get it running, see when your turbos spool , and judge from there.

personally , with my car in sig. everyone kept saying 34-3500 stall with your build, and thats what i got.
a friend of mine with a similar build got a 2800 and i was so much happier with his stall then mine.
