In all reality i think his stall is on the small side for the cams he is looking at.

TREX, more overlap equals more power and this cam has a lot of it.

No it's not a small converter. It has been proven to be THE converter for SI cars. But with a cam that is in the lower 240's duration i would think you could go even larger to take full advantage of the cam's powerband.

Also i wouldn't rule out the Juggernaut cam. It may be the badass N/A stock heads cam out there. 01-Z went 10.60's with it on a nitrous tune and nitrous converter. With more stall and gear 10.50's wouldn't be an issue. Just because you don't know the specs i wouldn't rule it out. Louis said it's still got 75 thou clearance on stock heads....how much does teh TRex have?

That or a 4000 stall is just about right for the power band of a trex. Hell the manufacture recommends a 4000 or 4400 stall check the web site www.thunderracing.com
