I've heard good things about the 4000 with I think its the 2.6STR. If that cam is on a 114, then you will probably want the 4000.

Is it going to get a power adder any time in the foreseable future? If so then the tighter of the two would be my choice.

4000 is allot on the street, but I have many happy customers sporting them! Those gears will really come alive with that cam and converter setup.

Good luck.

i have a torquer 2 and SS4000 and wouldnt have it any smaller. the SS series will be fine if you add nitrous. this is what Dave at yank told me.

Based on my experience I am going to suggest staying in the 3600 ballpark because of the N2O.

Good Luck!

If your basing your decision on whether or not people are going to notice the stall then get a 2000 stall.
People who know what they are hearing are going to know its a big stall whether its a 3600 or a 4000.
I love my Coan 4k stall. Nobody really says anything about it till they get beat and then the stall question comes up.

no one's gonna know if you have a 3600 or 4200 without telling them. they're gonna know you have a stall either way. youll wish you went bigger later. i promise
