Also could you post an exhaust clip please?

Thanks
I'd say that depends on your displacement. I've read that bigger cubes make a bigger cam act smaller than it would on a smaller engine.

That being said - my converter was supposed to be a 3000 stall but they somehow screwed up and it actually stalls around 2200rpm lol which I actually like the lower stall to be honest.

just this past saturday I reinstalled and turned back on the MAF and did some Idle tuning and re-scaled the MAF and I have to say it drives really nice once it's warmed up.

I have to do some cold weather Idle tuning, kinda hard to do out here in AZ. but once at temp it drives really nice - and I thought I purchased a 4.10 rear axle but it is actually a 3.73 gear so that make it even that much more impressive.

I'd say you'd be fine especially with the 3600rpm stall - but remember, mine is the 400ci stroker cam which is different than the LS3 stage 3 and stage 4 cam.

Cool deal. Almost done stroking my L92 6.2 to a 415ci stroker. Have done 4 inch intake with 100 mm MAS and 102mm TB with a radial ported intake manifold. Heads have been opened up much as possible and have Lt headers. Good to hear that it drives decent with that low of stall. I should have no problem. Should make a bunch of power! Thanks for the input bud.

Yeah - you'll be happy with it - sounds like a good build you have going. I cant wait to open up my heads.

Definitely post up your results! should be over 500hp to the wheels it sounds like.
