In order to accurately determine the best stall speed, a TON more info is needed. Give us a COMPLETE list of your mods down to the tires and we'll be able to help a lot better.

That sounds like a cool truck. Do you have pictures? I would go with a TCI SSF3500 or higher. Is this a daily driver?

I would suggest a 3400-3600 stall with a pretty agressive STR. The stall will get you into the meat of your powerband without being too high for spraying. The higher STR will shock those big tires hard and get that heavy truck moving. I hope that helps.

Maybe a little less STR then; focus a little more on efficiency for nitrous.
