thank everyone so much for post. talk to dave real nice guy. but he saying its cam not converter .i dont agree with that . think my brake hold descent .i feel i shouldn't have to fight a 3200 converter at 2300 rpm .when i release brake it flashes no were near 3200 .i leave line at 2600-2800 on two step .it take off with no flash . i know that not right . as as lean or rich .i tried both 9.6 and 17.2 made no differece 128kpa (4lbs) ,i am going take it where i have the 6 cars i worked on to ACC IN CONWAY SOUTH CAROLINA . I have good power on 11lbs 1/8 mile 99mph and 1/4 mile 123 at 4400lbs .that why i dont its the cam

It's par for the corse.
There's no right or wrong.
Cam co. blames Convertors guy
Convertors guy blames cam guy
Transmission guys blame tuners

Tim it's the blame game. Nothing new in hot rodding.

If you want more stall ask for a higher stall then what you have. It's just a number at the end of the day. Just like a 6psi spring yields different boost on different builds.

Your building power.
Brakes won't hold it pushes through.
Given it more power without holding power you will still push through.
Raising the stall (making it looser) will allow you to leave at a higher rpm.
But your brakes will still only hold X power.

Stalls are never on the money the first time, its a guessing game for builders to get them right based on mods

Have it restalled or get a new one

You need a log to see what your flash is.

Also, it sounds like brakes are your problem not the converter

tim wellington

brakes fine did several logs free stall up 2300 after only flash to 2750 ish a 2800 converter basically

Probable could be a little looser, but its a fine line with a turbo stall. Once you get high enough RPM to light the turbo, It will start making boost fast and power will go up real quick and push the stall way up. A 3200 converter goes to a 3800+ converter real quick!!

Tim, the 3500 ptc brake stalls to 3500 at 7 psi, its built with a nitrous stator, but it tightens up hard. I also have hydroboost and 05+ front brakes.

got stall redone drove to conway sc 186 mile one way . converter had a defect from yank i am not bashing yank . but ATLANTIC COAST CONVERTER will let see from start to finish of fixing ur old or building a new one . i dont think nobody else does that .i had some fins not welded good on the pump and the lock clutch disc part of the linen missing due to weld splatter on mating surface .this is NOT what i was told this what i SAW. MY THING is every one makes mistakes .as trick performance said converter ppl blame cam ppl .some time you need to own up to your mistake (yank) .will let yall know track result sunday
