Default Nitrous converter

Ok I gave Neal Chance a call and gave them all my engine specs for a 346 and they took all the engine info and told me the converter I should run would be a 9" that on the juice (300-400 shot) it would stall up to about 6000 RPM The power band by there calculations and even my research would be around 6120-7500 RPM, which seems accurate. I know Neal Chance is the place to go for a converter but DAM 6000 stall, I thought nitrous converters where supposed to be tighter..... I dont know thats why im asking you guys that have been there done that. Any suggestions??

Joe

that's what they are saying it'd flash to on a launch ON the 300-400 shot. I bet if you were on motor that thing wouldn't flash past 4000rpm.

I agree also, on nuts it will be tight. Adding 300-400 HP will loosen your teeth & you better keep your head tight to the seat, before letting go of the brake.

My N2O converter was 4000 NA & 5400 with a 175 shot, yours sounds right for a big hit like that. Good luck, be careful.

They're super tight on motor, but on the spray they get up there, mine goes to 4000 on the t-brake on motor and flashes to like 5300 or so on the spray!
