How Much did your times drop with high stall converter!!!!!!
I have a basically stock 99 TA I am going to run it this weekend...but i think i will only get about a 13.5 out of it......I was wondering how much a stall would help me....i have heard of people dropping .3 tenths with just a stall is this possible for me?? what results have you guys had?
thanks
Dustin

I would assume that some people say they can drop up to a second or so sometimes...but it always depends on your launch. Some poeple go from street tires running a 13.5 with a 2.6 60ft or something god awful. Then they throw on a converter and some drag radials and run a 12.5...only bc they're car probably could've ran a 13.0 to begin with, if it had some good tires on it.
I would say you could probably see an easy.4-.5 on average though.

0.45s with only a Fuddle 3200 Performance series converter (the el-cheapo model). That converter is running strong in another friends car and he won't trade it for the world. Makes more torque than anything made here locally off the line, and has run 11.8@116 1.6x 60' 220-220 cam and heads, 3600lbs race weight.
My Fuddle 3400 has run a best of 11.7@120 1.6x 60' babying it off the line, 228-232 cam and heads, 3600lbs race weight. Full stall launch requires slicks, which I have but not used yet.

I went 13.5 @ 103 with 2.0 60' on street tires.
added Yank 4000 stall and sticky tires and went 12.5 @ 106 with 1.66 60' This was with the stock manifolds and stock WS-6 exhaust. added a 75 shot and ran 11.97 @ 112(?). Then went up to 100 shot and ran 11.5 @ 114-115, 1.54 60'.
Added headers and TDs, went 12.2 @ 110 1.66 60' on motor and 11.3 @ 118, 1.6 60' on the 100 shot. Adding skinnies and upping the shot to 150 and shooting for 10s on the stock motor later this month.

I went from 13.4x's around 102-103 stock with the stock tranny. then down to 12.70's 102-03 with a Fuddle 3400 an FLT tranny on an MT DR. The Vig 3600 I have now has netted me a couple high 12.6x's @ 105-106. Thats all on 2.73s too.
