brobradh77 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 (edited) I got my truck back after the Yank TT2600 stall and Zippy shift kit and new tune was put in and gonna do Trans. cooler next week. All I can say is WOW I have only stalled it up once and I am going to have to work on the launches because I broke em loose real good..lol Any suggestions like maybe leave Traction Control on. Any way as for the shift kit Zippy you are the man my guy builds drag cars for a living and he says my truck shifted like one of his cars and he was very impressed with it.

Those mods are some of the best you can do to these trucks, IMO. As for your traction problems, you'll need slicks at the track. That traction control crap is pretty bogus when you start putting real power to the wheels. Good luck! In the meantime, drop your tire pressure!

04silveradoclone07ss Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 well i have a question, and yes it may be a dumb question but what is " stalling it up"? and what are the benefits of a tc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacerJJ Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 well i have a question, and yes it may be a dumb question but what is " stalling it up"? and what are the benefits of a tc. "Stalling it up" means holding the brake while bring the rpm's up to around 2500 (or more depending on your stall speed) while in gear. The advantages of a higher stall TC are getting the power of your motor to the transmission and, ultimately, to the wheels faster as well as quicker launches. Hope this helps and there are no "dumb" questions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04silveradoclone07ss Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 what it the stock stall set at? because i do that sometimes when i leave work to spin them a little. the guys says its a "brake stand" . but i wish i could do it and launch and not spin them. also, is it like when you watch drags where once they get to the line the both rev up and then launch?

My 3200 isn't as mushy on the street as I thought it would be. It's definately tolerable once you get used to it. The bigger problem for higher stalls in a daily driver is the transmission temp. I'm an advocate of 3000 and higher stalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They drive like almost stock even with a high stall and yet make for one hell of a launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right...I drove it home from the track today and you can hardly tell that the stall is so high. Great drivability and a 1.88 60' time...that's what I'm talkin' bout!

CNE Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 I have a TB converter and it stalls about 2800, if I'm hard on the brakes. I think it launches harder around 1500-2000 then slam it to the floor. It seems to load the engine up if I stall it higher. Probably due to the stock tune for now. I have had a best of 2.02 60 ft.
