26" will give you your take off and the 28" will give you the top end, but i say 28" because you need the traction like myself! Im going 28" because i cant really hook with 26" Drag radials

thanx guys i'll try both just to be sure, and thanx for your input's, just that the tbstall is a v6 stall and works better with N/A setups, cuz the radix just gives to much torque for a v6 stall, it felt like it wasnt pulling as hard as the stock stall.
