depends on the type of boost, how big the cam is etc

you gave is some info and basically nothing at all at the same time.

I like the Yank and people who have tried other brands seem to be very happy with theirs as well. It's a tad loose for my taste... but it sure as hell works well.

I have the vinci trucker cam. P1sc running 9psi. Rolling on 33in all terrains.

I guess I am wondering what stall I should get.

I would get a tighter converter with a stall speed around 2800-3000. Yank or Circle D will take care of you. Give either of them a call and talk about your set up and goals for the truck. They know what their talking about.

Sounds like our 258mm multi disk will be a nice choice, but would like a little more info to make sure we spec the right one for your combo. Can you fill out an Ask Chris from or give us a call at the shop. Would love to see you in a Circle D converter...
