T-Rex is really big and will work on stock heads no fly cut.

Why do you want the "biggest"? Just because you can run insane duration and lift doesn't mean it's going to be usable...

Problem is that when you spray, you do not need such a big stall since spray will increase your stall.
That is why I use a VIG 3200
A 4000 stall 2.4 str will act like a 4800 stall under juice if you see what I mean.

I just had the ms3 put in my car. I am running stock heads. I made 413/380 through a 12 bolt. I will let you know when I find out what it makes on the nitrous, hopefully later today.

A 4400 converter will flash at about 5200 on the progressive squeeze...just FYI.
