First the truck short list details.
2005 Z71 4x4 ECSB
Radix @7psi on a stock L33 5.3 getting basically 387HP/395TQ on the dyno August summer temps.
3.42:1 gears.
I normally run a stock stall with no complaints and have never driven a high stall vehicle.
I recently lost the trans and converter (Circle D stock stall) and had the new built trans with converter sent to my installer and they sent an FTI 2800 stall by mistake (a mix up) and I don't like it.
Its a daily driver and I like to ease around alot and its a lot of Wahhh Whaaa going on. Getting it to shift up at medium speeds takes pedal work.
The Radix makes good power down low and I believe the 3.42:1 gearing is not enjoying the 2800 stall.
I need a stock stall that can handle my meager 387/395 power.
I would enjoy hearing your words and suggestions on the matter.

It also sounds like some tuning may need to happen to fully reap the benefits of the stall.
I loved my 3k stall behind the Whipple. At 2k it made 9psi.
Imagine the fun factor.

OK, Here she is.
The trans change mentioned in the title was a tweak to keep it from hunting in and out of OD at a slow cruise in top gear.
Its from 9/5/16
