Default stall ?'s

i think i have made up my mind that a 3200-3600 circle d will be next on my mod list. how will it effect towing and what cooler should i go with? those of you with a stall what are the pros and cons to a converter in a truck? Will also be adding headers and under drive pulley at same time

Most tow-friendly is the 11" 3200 Circle D and you'd be good with a Tru Cool 40KGVW cooler by Long. My buddy has one in his ECSB Z71 and you can feel it flash to 2900-3000 rpms. He tows too.

3000-3200 to tow with anything more it'll build too much heat an slip too much to get the truck moving good

No need for bypass. Quite a few of us running the Tru Cool up here in Alaska all winter with no bypass. You will be more than fine
