if you get a really small cam, then you wont need a stall. that said, are you okay with getting a stall & youll need a tranny cooler too, and maybe a tranny rebuild too.

Stall before the cam is more bang for the buck. Look into a yank or circle d maybe in the 3600 range. That's good for a DD.

I assume since you are driving the car daily, you are wanting something that has good street manners that won't give up much driveability. How much power are you wanting out of it? Depending on how aggressive you are wanting to go on the cam, it will dictate how much converter you need to put in it. We have a full line of shelf cams from mild street cams to all out cam only builds. We can also spec you a custom cam if needed to get you to your goals. Either way you decide to go, we can put the cam in one of our cam packages to get you cam, springs, and pushrods at a great price! We also have the Vigilante converters in whatever stall speed you would like for your combo! Shoot me a PM and we'll get you fixed up with everything you need!
