stall? I am deffinately a newb because i've only had my car for about 6 months and all it has is a k&n filter and spinteck muffler got them both from friends. I plan on making a full bolt on car lt's dual exhaust, 3.73's and a chassis dyno tune. I'm hoping to run something like a 4000 stall but i'm not sure yet. The car will be daily driven and it's gonna get a 100shot. I'm looking to get the best 1/4 with decent streetability. is a 4000 or 4400 good or bad? whats my best bet? Please help guys, I'm looking for 11.5-12.0's Help me out guys.

The SS series is nice and tight for around town but the higher STR will kick *** at the track. Look at my sig and figure a SS3600 would get me another tenth. Then factor in a 100 shot from a 12.2 and can you say "hello LOW 11's!"
Good luck.

I've got a guy around me with a 2001 camaro he's got a 3200 stall with a set of street et's an exhaust dump lid, filter, and street tune and he just ran 12.2. is his car some kind of freak? How much of a differance is there between the 3600 and 4000 stall? which stall is better with the nitrous? I see alot of people that have the 3600 stall and say they wish they went with the 4000.

The difference between a 3600 and a 4000 stall at the track is probably about one tenth assuming the STR is the same.

ok so majority says the 3600 stall but now which one? yank? tci? PRO YANK 3600 EXTREME 4L60E/4L65E? SUPER STOCK 3600 4L60E/4L65E? i have no clue what to go with. i hope this thing will lauch the **** out of my car lol. How much nitrous can a stock bottom end take? and running 11.5-12.0 with the 3600 stall will I pop my rear? I'm just looking to build a budget monster you know.

With bolt ons and 3.23's I can get 1.65 - 1.72 60's. The Yank SS3600 should hit a little harder then that. Probably low 1.6's on MY setup. Spraying out of the hole you might see some 1.5x 60's
The real question is how much HP can the stock bottom end take. The answer is around 600 rwhp. So if your car makes 350 rwhp then you could spray a 250 shot on the stock bottom end. Problem is that there are other parts of the car that can't handle that much spray. Like the stock fuel pump and injectors.
General rule of thumb is these cars can handle up to a 150 shot with only needing to upgrade the spark plugs. But it's a good idea to pull a little timing. You'll run a tenth or two slower NA but you'll be faster and safer on the spray.
If you're really worried about it then wait till you get 20 feet off the line before you spray.

Once I stage I'll hold the gas hard with my left foot and then I use my right foot to bring my rpm's up to 2000. On green I release the brake and floor the gas at the same time.
It's the proceedure of bringing up the rpm's while holding down the brake that is referred to as "preloading the drivetrain". Basically by increasing the revs you reduce the shock that the rearend receives during a launch.
