Default stalls, can you explain to me how one would effect...

i want to know how they work and what mods are needed to run a verter? i remember seeing ppl mention tranny coolers and thats a given due to the extra stress on the tranny. what other mods? how can they effect the trans? i do the occasional drag race at the track but mostly roll races, will a verter make any difference on running from a roll? thanks for any input guys!

Well say your engine had a big cam that just won't idle below 800 rpm. The car would try to fight the brakes and just be a pain. The stall would make it so when you pull it into gear it would just set there and sound good. Then say your big cam engine makes 150hp at 1800 rpm, but makes 300 at 3500 rpm. The stall would let you leave the line putting down twice the amount of power to the wheels. Plus they have torque multipliers built in to help even more. Basically you'd want one if you have a big cam and or a heavy car. Does that make any sense? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
