Default plan on going auto. Will a low 3600 stall still be faster than current m6?

This is for only motor purposes. I plan on using nitrous eventually so that is why I am only going with a 3600 stall in a th350 trans. But since I am not going with a 4000 or 4400 stall I am afraid when I do this m6 to th350 swap the lower 3600 stall will not be any faster than my m6 when just racing all motor. In case you need to know my peak horsepower was at 5800rpms and held it to 6600rpms. You can also check my sig for any other info. Also I currently run 11.6s probably low 11.5s with more practice. What do you guys think? Thanks.

I would bet on you being easily faster with a stalled auto... as long as you don't run out of gear.

1.6x, one time I hit 1.59 all this was with 3.89 gears. I have now switched to 4.22 gears since I realized in 4th gear I was not near my peak power when I crossed the line. I will just change to a 28" tire with my th350 whenever I decide to finally use nitrous.
