I have heard that my first mod should definitely be a stall in my car. It is a daily driven vehicle and I mean that I drive this sucker everywhere I go all the time. I have been trying to decide on what size stall will actually be good for my setup. I really don't plan on changing out my 3.23's for anything.

I have seen some good deals on about 3200-3400 stalls for sale on all the different boards. What would you guys suggest for the vehicle listed in my sig?

Yank SS3600. A little pricey but worth every penny.
This one ROCKS.
Drives like a 3000 stall converter until you mash it. I know; I upgraded from a 3000.
Everyone who has driven my car loves it.

Yank SS3600 is the way to go.

Another vote for the SS3600. I LOVE it and I dont even know its there anymore. It works great with the 3.23's as well, thats what I have

I just got my TCI 3500 stall put in and I love every bit of it. I had to get used it, but after the first day it literally feels like the stocker till you mash it. I'm gonna have my shift points changed and idle raised cause it likes to die in reverse.

You will be fine with the TCI SSF3500, Vig3200, or Yanks SS3600. Of those i would opt for the SS3600 if you don't mind spending a little extra money. I am always extremely low on money, and the bargain priced SSF3500 has served me well.

I have SY3500 (now discontinued). This is EXTREMELY streetable and the replacement (SS3600) is great too. Another vote for SS3600

I agree that the Yank SS3600 is a great choice. I went with the TCI SF3000 because of its similar reputation for oustanding driveability, performance that is close, and a price that is $350 less.

I dug my TCI3500 in the street.


Hell, I dug my Hughes 4500 in the street too (but I would not recommend that big for just anyone)

Going with a stall around 3400 in a daily driven LS1 with 3.23s is really not going to be bad at all. I personally prefer the feel to stock. We can make you a converter that will stall at 3400 and feel GREAT on the road. Not only that, we can do it for $359 in our current Group Purchase. For a daily driver, and to feel close to stock, I wouldn't go past about 3500-3600.

another 3600 Yank owner here, it rules.

I have daily driven a 4400 and I liked it. But it certainly didn't feel close to stock and wouldn't make much sense on a daily driver concerned with maintaining good drivability and feel with a stock cam and 3.23 gears.

One more Yank SS 3600 to add to the growing list.

I already wish I had gone bigger. Maybe 4000 stall. After a day or two, it feels like stock again.

Ya, i could have gone with a higher stall in the SS series for sure....Oh well, I like this 1 but if I were to do it again (personal preference here on a non daily driven car) I would have gone with at least a 4k.

I'd be going 3800-4000 vs 3500. Daily driver though.

I have a SSF 3500 with 3.73s, and I CANNOT get traction with street tires. I just sit there smokenemup at the light if I mash it. It's total badass, but I want to go BIGGER.

I have an ST3800, I think it has a 2.5 or 2.7 STR, drives just like my friends TCI with the same specs. I also have 3.23's. Mods, in my sig, which are nothing serious.

I let my girlfriend drive it last weekend so she could feel how the stall was, her words "it's a little different, but nothing you can't handle".

Maybe it helped that she never drove it with the stock converter, or that her car is a v6 and is used to the revs being at ~2500, but still, the fact that it didn't even bother her at all should say alot about how driveable it is. If I didn't tell her about it, I think she may not even have known about it.

Also, most people that ride in the car, never notice it unless I say something about it

It'll lock up at 37mph in OD, and in D, it'll lock up at 25mph. You will have to relearn how to launch, as just punching it from a stop roasts the tires, but with some practice you will be able to launch way better than before.

And IMO, the way a converter slips more at lower rpm/throttle makes it much easier to drive in the rain and bad road conditions. Obviously you won't be able to go faster, but it'll be much harder to make the tires slip unless you're trying.

I would suggest nothing smaller than 3500.
