Default 2800 stall with ms4??????
hi guys i had a quick question i know a 2800 stall is really small for a ms4 cam on a ls1... but would it be able to at least get the car rolling be able to start the car.... without any problems? car has full bolt ons and 4.10s will be getting a bigger stall later... just trying to get things running for now... thanks

yes, the car will run. You can run a giant cam with a stock converter. Its not gonna be ideal and get the most out of the cam, but it will still run.

Definitely plan to swap that converter out. It will be drivable but like others have said it will be less than ideal for the MS4.
