Am I the only one who hates DDing a stall?

Ive owned Circle D, Yank, Vig and a few others.. but yes for a weekend toy or something im all for it.. maybe im just getting old.. With my Denali for example im going stock stall, full boltons, baby cam (215/227) maybe some 3.73s, and maybe a Positive diplacement blower.
I've got 4.11's and it is by no means lethargic. The problem with stock stalls is there efficiency in the upper rpm's.

I just put a Phoenix 10.5" 2,600 in my 4L80E in my Express behind my 350. I personally like the converter, it unloads the engine and lets me use less throttle to accelerate. A little more RPM, but less throttle and less load. With my shift point/lockup settings I am in lockup by 30 mph in 2nd gear under light throttle acceleration. I would have liked a little higher stall speed, but the marine cammed 496 big block will soon take care of that for me.

I had a 2,600 stall in mine and went to a 3,200 Circle-D Pro III. Lot soggier. Even with 4.88 gears it's mushy. Yeah the truck is an animal off the line but as something I road trip a lot it's rough getting use to.

I had a Yank 3200 in my 2dr Tahoe (roughly 4600lbs), FLT Lvl 5 trans and basic bolt-ons and no tune. Ran like a champ.
I have a FTI 2800/3000 in a stock 4l60e besides a shift kit junior and a tune in my 07 Tahoe (roughly 5200lbs). Its no fun at all compared to my 2dr.

I hope I don't regret my 3200 Circle D when I get my 4l80e swap working.
