I used to have a PI Stallion 2800 single plate, I was happy with it. When I got big power I went with a 2200 triple plate.

Where do you get a stallion tq converter? What stall rpm would you say would still be streetable but good for the track? Thanks.
snow :(
I have a BC Automtive level 2 3500 rpm stalll I bought off another member it's installed but have yet to run the car. What are your plans? some of the Eaton crowd say 3000 rpm stall is good but for the N/A and centrifugal 3500 rpm stall seems to be more desirable.

Right now I am N/A but I dream of s/c, will probably run No2 for now. How much do think mpg will go down with a 3000 or 2800 stall? I am about to install 4.10 gears.

2800 is more street friendly than a 3500, but the 3500 will get you better drag strip times. Precision Industries.

If you going to run NOS I would think you would need less stall as the immediate torque of the nitrous would overpower the tires. I'm not sure how much of a MPG hit you would take. I have yet to test mine but you may want to contact Darrin or PI and ask there opinionsOriginally Posted by tallpaul

Triple disc is more noisy, not needed unless you're running over 500 rwhp.

i'm running 3k stall with a centif. s/c and no complants. p.i stallon

I think that $1000 would be better for an exhaust system instead of a tq converter, considering that I have a stock exhaust system. An engine that breathes good is better than a tq converter I think.

I remember those days.... That was on engine #1
