convertor advice hey i am looking a getting a 3600 fuddle stall, right now i've went 12.98 @108 mph with a stock stall and 2.73 and nittos. And my best mph was 109 with a low 13 second ET.
I want to go with a 3600 and i will install my 3.42 gears. What do you think i will run?
you guys with a fuddle 3600 how is it for daily driving? I also use my car as a DD and race it about twice a month.
thanks

The 3.42's aren't going to give you much at the track, but they're going to make the car so much more pleasant to drive around town. With my similar mods, I ran a best of 12.6 @ 106 up here in the 1/4 mile high city; with your 109 trap, low altitude, higher stall, & headers, I think you could see a 12.2 with good traction on a cool day.

Personally, for a stock cam, I would go no bigger than the Fuddle 3200. The 3600 will yield better gains at the track, but reduce your usable RPM due to a 300RPM increase in shift extension. For street/strip use, the 3200 gets my pick.

My advice, don't get a converter less than a 3500

Do it right the first time and you'll save money in the long run.

If you wanted to verge more on strip side, then of course 3600 is the go, with the 4000 for bigger cams approaching 240+ duration and 4400 for serious track use and the hardest of launches.
