Default wut stall
I have a 2000 SS and I'm gonna be running MS3 cam set up.
Mostly street use maybe the track a couple times. I don't really know much about stalls,but I'm lookin for drivability but with enough empf to get the job done.

Maybe the Yank pt4000. I had a friend with this converter and a cam close to the same specs as the ms3, and it was a beast.

We have several options for you and would love to help. Can you fill out our "Ask Chris" form, link is in sig. That will give us the info we need to spec a converter. While a 4000 might be best for the track, it can be a bit much for a DD with minimal track visits. So it really depends on how aggressive you want to get. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Chris

Nope, a lot of people run a 4000 in their DD.

Depends on what you go with. Fill out the "Ask Chris" form from Circle D and they can tell you how much and what stall will be best for you. I just mentioned Yank because the cam you are asking about is close to my friends cam, and he ran a Yank converter. I'm going with a Circle D for my next converter.

the converter has a lock up clutch,which acts like a 5 gear. .4000 rpm is the flash rpm if you mash the gas.get a good tranny cooler and a deeper pan.how many miles on the trans?

If staying all motor, minimum 4000.. if spraying 3600-3800. With that big of a cam it wouldn't make any sense to go smaller than that.

Yea. I agree with lemons. If you get that big of a cam you have to get a 4000 stall or your going to loose alot between shifts

Sometimes I wish I would have went a little bigger for when I cam it, but I think about breaking my rear end and that doesn't sound fun

If a 4000 is going to kill it so is a 3500.

500$-800$ with a cooler, depending on options and brand.
