Default Stall Size for a blown ws6?

I need some advice on picking a converters stall size. I want the best results at the track, while retaining the best driveability on the street. Horsepower being between 900-1000rwhp. Its a centrifugal headunit so torque should be right there waiting past the Trans Brake.


This is going to be a circle D 258mm triple. Id guess anywhere from 3600-4200 but I am unsure if there would be that big of a difference at the track vs the difference while cruising on the street.

Do you choose by guessing where youll most likely make the most torque so you can stall to that rpm and T-brake it?


Thanks for your input.

Talk to who's making your converter.

Call them, give them your specs and what you want to do with the car and they will recommend something for you.

Thought about that once I realized they were closed. But wondered if they may be biased. I also wanted to get different opinions. If I wanted one opinion that is def the solution. But yeah def doing that tomorrow. I just prefer the "ask the audience" lifeline vs "phone a friend" when its the million dollar question ya know.

damn that was a great comparison.

i have not yet. names joe. i have my quote etc.....but its the last thing I am ordering. I have heard of a few people having problems but they were all pretty heavy hitters and i think they skipped the super drum 36 billet sprag. i know that piece alone is a huge upgrade in price and reliability for 1000wheel cars. im just finishing my fuel system and exhaust up and ill be saving to get it.
