Default Woohoo and a Question

well my subwoofers and amp are gone...I knew the subs and box were heavy, but god damn, so was the wiring and amp...Now when I floor it in first, I leave a nice thick burnout rather than a light chirp. I can feel the looseness of the rear end and the lack of weight back there...Definitely feels a lot quicker now...I am selling the stereo to a guy I work with for 700 bucks. Now 3.73s, stall, and dynotune are next. Would you guys recommend a 3200 or 3600 stall? I am going with a H/C 383 soon within less than a year, and I am most likely going with a yank or vig, so I want the best, and I only want to do it once.

Do 3200 then. You wanna keep it in your torque band.

It was my old 383 with a locked converter for a low pull, custom cam but emissions friendly 224/224 @110 LSA It needed something like a 236/236 @108

But the tq gains 50 foot pounds from 2100 to 3100, so I would wager a 3000ish stall is fine.
