3600 Stall at the least. I'm going with a Yank PT/SS 4000. Whichever I get cheaper.

if its still a daily dirver more or less, id lean towards the 3.42's. I have 3.73's, ss3500, and TQRIII cam and its hard to not notice the gas gauge actually move when i go WOT.

on top of that, ive heard from most people that have made the jump that the difference performance wise between 3.42's and 3.73's wasnt as much as they thought

3500-4000 stall is a great start. Don't forget the tranny cooler.

Stock I ran 13.5 @ 103.

Lid, catback and SSRA only I ran 13.1 @ 106.

With a Lid, catback, SSRA, LT headers, ORY, ported TB and TCI SSF3500 stall I ran 12.3 @ 109.

With boltons, 4400 stall, fast 90, streetsweeper cam and 4.10 gears I run:

But get a stall and transmission cooler first. It makes the car way more fun to drive.
