Default Help with picking a stall

For my next mod I'm looking at getting a TR224 cam but I need help with picking a good stall. My SS is not my daily driver right now but in a few months will be as I will be giving my DD now to my daughter. So I would like a setup good for daily driving. The only mods or Lid and headers and tune.

Anything from 3600 to a 4000 would be good. I wish I went bigger.

I will throw in a Vote for the SS3600 as well. I have had mine behind everything from a cam only 5.3L to the last (Turbo 6.0L) setup going 143mph in the quarter...

450 or so Passes 18,000 miles and still rock solid.

Please buy the SS3600. They had enough respect to answer your question.

Assume this unit has a stall of 3600 rpm? Sharp aren't I? Isn't that about 50% of the rpm where your vehicle is making power? Thats a rule of thumb for a street strip vehicle in my mind. Please also add more cooling capacity for the tranny.

When you get it installed don't tell anyone. Damn, I have no idea why my car is quicker on the street and the 1/4 mile.

just got done installing my lvl2 and ss4000.... still have 3.23 so its a little mushy. BUT, once again, Dave delivers... freaking unreal linear feel... and its lose enough my shifts are very smooth and subtle.. this will change after going to 4.10's, but.... I can tell HOW efficient this thing is..

this is my second yank and I wouldnt ride anything else... my cam is a little bigger than yours (232/234), so dave is spot on I would say a 3600 will make you more than happy.

i would say ss3600, i never drove in a car with a stall before i ordered mine, i went with the st2800 i wish i went bigger it drives almost like it was stock (except when you mash the pedal).

i cant cant speak for the ss3600 but it would be my next choice if i wasnt considering selling my car and getting a c5z.

you wont be happy if you settle for a smaller converter trust me, hope this helps you

*edit*
my car is only driven in the summer , when i first bought the stall i was using my car daily and thought 3600 would be too much for daily driving so i settled on the 2800, and i was dissapointed pulling out of the shop parking lot. i really would hate to see someone spend the money and not be happy with their car.
