Default Is a 3000-3500 stall too much

Im doing a Th400 swap in my truck and I was thinking of getting a TCI streetfighter converter for the swap the stall it says is 3000-3500 with balooning plate. Is this too much stall for my truck I thought with a blower you should go with a 2600-2800 stall range, Is this a good converter for my setup or is there one better?

The truck is my daily driver but gas money isnt a serious issue I plan on getting a winter car soon. I will be pullying the truck down to 10psi and putting some hoosier slicks in the back also adding a decent sized trans cooler.

Will you be towing with this vehicle at all?

Have you driven a stalled vehicle before?

What are your goals?

I'd honestly call Yank or Vig as they have the best rep that I know of and seem to be the go to guys. Circle D has been getting good reviews as well. I have heard 50/50 good n bad on the TCI stuff....

I think calling one of the three I suggested would steer you in the right direction

No heavy towing maybe a small uhaul trialer with furniture in it at the most, or filling up the bed everyonce and a while

My goal is low 12-11sec 1/4 mile

I had a mustang with a 2500 stall, my first car, I know how the truck will act if thats what your asking.

Yank and Vig TH400 to LS1 converters are 3000 and up stall I havent seen any lower stalls
