I was wondering which convertor or actually how big of a stall can I use but still drive from like Dallas,TX to california or to florida(regardless of gas mileage) and will perform like champ without any side effect's?

3400 or so, bigger if you're going to the strip often and don't care about mpg.

On long trips (TX --> CA/FL), so long as it has a TCC, you'll be fine.

I just installed a SS4000 and LOVE it. It is a great daily driver verter and is nice and tight around town. As long as it is a lock-up verter, your highway MPG won't change. I had a 3500 but this 4000 feels/drives so much better.

I would suggest a 3000 to 3500 stall and would ask that you take a look at ours ,As stated with lockup virtually any stall will not affect hwy mileage but if you do a lot of in town start and stop and heavy city traffic I would stay on the lower side as a good compromise.

I planned on using a yank PT 4000 but I was thinking could I make those trips in my car with that size stall? I don't care about the mileage just as long as I make it there around town and back home again without overheating the tranny and convertor?

There are members who drive 4400+ on daily drivers. Get a good tranny cooler and a tranny temp gauge to monitor it, and you'll be fine. Road trips will be a breeze and you won't know you have that converter in there until you get on it .

Ive got a 3500 and mine works great everywhere. Not bad in traffic either.

I do not like a loose converter for a DD. I would go with a 3200-3500 max.

I've read a lot of threads on this and am still confused on what to get. I guess because my car is just as much of a track car as it is a street car. I drive it about 40 miles daily in heavy traffic, and I race it every week. I plan to do a semi-large cam (230-240 range duration).

Is a vig 3600 going to be a pain on the street? I figured a vig would be nice because it says they will restall it for you free, one time...so if I picked the wrong stall I could have it redone.

Depends, do you race on the streets? Do you run slicks at the track? a lower STR would work for situations where traction is a limitation (ie: street tires at the track with ok prep), but a higher STR works better if you are using slicks. Around town driving will be better with a higher STR, but you can easily overpower traction limited surfaces. Lower STR has a looser (slipping the clutch) feel around town, but is more forgiving on traction limited surfaces. One other thing, as the STR goes up, the efficiency on the top end goes down ... vice versa with a lower stall = better efficiency on the top end. The Vig3600 would be a wise choice, although they tend to stall higher then comparable competitors products. This is because of how the stall rating is conducted. Anyway, it will possibly be around a 4000 true stall, flash should be around 3600. Good luck!
