Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? and if it makes a difference...my car idles at about a grand and i kinda have to fight it at a red light. pulls itself pretty good in gear. Or should i want it to do this? (i'm not a genius about converters....yet)
Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? Why does your car idle so high? Mine idles at 1000 but I have a big cam. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
With 3.73s, a 3500 or higher works great.

Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? Ragtop,
dont know why it is set that high. just where the shop set it at. Right now with the 2800, the best 60ft has been a 1.86 on dr's. Which model of Yank or Vig would i be better to go with?

Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? Since you have a cam, the SS 3800 would rock for you! It does for me!

Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? I don't see any track times in your sig. If it is for street a SY 3500 is a great choice. If you've got good tires and hit the track, the SS 3800 or YTP 4400 would be good choices.

Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? Ragtop,
so far, the best times are a 12.6 @ 112 w/1.868 60ft. Granted, the track here really stinks. but i think my tuning is still a little off too. I do run DR'S at the track. And this is my daily driver too. How loose feeling is the ss3600/3800? generally it takes about 2000 or 2200 to really get going with the one i have now. how much worse would these be? (if any)

Re: What stall with 3.73 gears??? I doubt you'll hook up a SS3800 on drag radials with 3.73s so the SS3600 may be a better choice. figure on using another 200 - 400 rpm depending upon driving style.
