Default First time stalled.

I recently finished installing my new built transmission w/ a 3500 stall. It feels sluggish at first but gets going after it flashes of course. But it still feels weird, is this normal? Does it take time to get used to a stalled tranny? Also, would it be a good idea to get it tuned?

What converter and what STR? Yes it's normal, but it should feel a lot better when getting on it. SS3600 and lovin it.

It does take some time to get used to a stall particularly going from a stock to a 3500 stall . Tuning can make performance overall much better also, I think once you get used to the feel of the stall you will like it , Personally I have found getting into it quicker even in normal driving works out much better and actually saves gas which is oposite the stock stall
