3500-4000 if youve got some steeper gears. Ive got a 3800 with 2.73s and the low to midrange looseness has some getting used to, but it's nice. just watch out for the cops. I didnt have the stall 2 days before i was pulled over

I love my Vigilante 3600....it's a bit more expensive though. From everything I've read, it's well worth it.

As for daily driving, it's a piece of cake.

You will get a lot of different stall answers with a thread like this. Your best bet is to contact the company you decide on and they should ask you for A TON of information about your car before making a decision with you.

What are the specs on your cam? If the duration is 236-244 a 3000 stall will be plenty, I have a cam with 236 duration at .050" and have a 3000 stall for the street, its a little big, a 2600 would have done the job too.

a 4000 stall on the street will make your car a dog until 4000 rpm.

If by dog, you mean loose feeling, that's correct. But the car will pull hard from 3300 (unlocked; stall speed is irrelevant when the converter is locked).

A 2600 stall is too small for an LS1 with a stock cam.

I'm surprised that you run such a small stall with such a big cam, but traction and driving goals vary by person.
