I'm looking at a stall for my next mod. I searched all the threads, and while most recommend a 2600 stall for a Radixed truck, these were for either 5.3 or 6.0 engines. I am wondering if for my 4.8, since it has a shorter stroke, thus less low end torque, but loves to rev, if a 3000 stall might be better? The other bit of wisdom I got from the search is that it's better to go a bit higher stall than you think you want, which would argue for the 3000. On the other hand, I looked at some of the videos of high stalled cars on ls1tech, and some of them were too loose for a daily driver IMAO (5000 rpm accelerating into traffic?). What do you guys recommend? Would a TB converter work? or would my engine shred it? BTW I have a 4.8 w/ radix, 10 psi boost, about 420 est crank HP. 3.73 G80 axle and 265x75x16" tires, it's 4WD. I use it as a daily driver but plan to take it to the track in the near future, and would like to do the 13's. I don't currently tow, but would like to retain that capability, as least to a moderate degree. The truck weighs 5000 lb (oink!).

 

I would think you'd be into the 13's with that setup in a RCSB already?
I have a TT3000 stall and it's fine for DD. There is a difference from stock but its not too loose.

Where does your power come on? I would think with the Radix you're making some good low end? A higher stall and you lose your low end. Add a cam to gain some top.

 

Whatever you do DONT get a Fuddle Converter Customer service SUCKS mine was supposed to ship 2 weaks ago and still have nuthin I finally was able to talk to john today and told him told him to SHOVE it.

 

I would go 2600 with a Radix...

 

3000 for sure. im regretting going with the trailblazer now

 

really so traillblazer stall bad idea

 

WOW what happened? You`ve been singing the Fuddle praises hard.

 

Apparently some **** has come up outside of the mans business that has taken away from his time to deal with the company. IMO The Breeze just caught him at a bad time. I dont know all the details but I have never had a real problem getting ahold of him and have always had good service and treated me right.

 

Its just that it doesnt stall much higher than stock. It will satisfy you for a while but oyu will want a bigger stall SOON. Go bigger from the beginning.

For the starter of this thread I would go with a 3000 the manufacturer is up to you but I have had good luck with Fuddle converters and so have everyone else that have had them.

 

go with a 3k man, you wont regret it.
