Default 4x4 guys with stall's

im still thinking of getting the TB stall for my 04 ECSB 4x4... since adding the 210/218 cam and no cats ive got crappy low end below 2500 rpms.. above and the truck is sweet

i dont have the 500-800bucks for yank stalls and etc so i was wondering how everyone likes the tb stall and how well its holding up? This is my daily driver also..

any thoughts and opinons are welcome

If you don't do alot of towing I would slap like a Fuddle 3000-3200 Stallin there to help bring that big truck out the hole. But if you do alot of towing with it I would go witha TB stall.

What kind of cam is that? I put in a Vinci 210/218 and I have loads of torque with the stock stall, although I do have the Radix. You are N/A?

Does the Fuddle slip with a heavy load?

A TB converter will work fine. I had a TCI3000 in my truck and towed with it and drove it everyday and it was fine. I have had one Fuddle in my truck and now Im going with a higher one for my 418. A Fuddle converter has ALOT larger lock up clutch than any other converter on the market.

Going with a 3200 btw John from Fuddle can put a different stator in there to make it feel "tighter" for you. Thats what he did for me.
