edgarss44 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 What is the difference between a stock converter vs say 3000 stall converter? Just want to get some answers because im clueless when it comes to this topic! Lol! Also if you get a different converter what else needs to be done for it to run right? What are the pros vs con's on doing this? My truck is a daily driver so I don't want to lose to much drivability! What do you guys recommend?? I'm mostly stock just exhaust and CAI! Thanks!!

Blown 346 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 A stock converter is puppy compared to 3000 full blooded huge dog. Trans upgrades I myself would do is get a larger trans cooler, valve body, servo, and shift points. But the power you make might not be the right stall for you. Your basically stock, no need for a converter yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgarss44 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thanks for the info! I'm trying to learn more about tranny upgrades so when the time comes I'll know what I'll need. So high stall converters are only good for highly modified engines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Not really true I have a yank 3200 stall with FLT level 5 trans cai arh Lt headers full 3" exhaust and electric fans not in my mind highly modified. call circle d or yank and ask them what you would gain or lose with a stall change and remember you'll need to have your truck tuned after the install. Here's a video that might help explain how the converters work look more on high stall converters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSenvy Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I agree, headers tune good stall and exhaust you can push low 14's maybe even high 13's. Very respectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WantaSSS Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) If you go with a stall, a large trans cooler is a must. I wouldn't worry about a stall until you have at minimum a shift kit and servos done. But even with a mostly stock engine they help a lot.

canadianVRss Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 A stall will help a truck in the 1/4 a lot. It's a good mod, but like mentioned above, you should run a bigger Trans cooler. Your tow rating will be significantly cut with a stall in most cases as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgarss44 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 That's for all the help guys! A lot of good info here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Not only if you go with a stall now and add add things to the truck you will be wasting money my having by another one.

SuperSickSS Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 So what comes first the transmission upgrade, then a stall? I am about to put a corsa sport on my truck. I have only a Volant cai and a tune. A cam and stall is something I want done to my truck too. Something that will not affect the truck too much, still going to daily drive it.
