how does a stall effect everyday driving
How does a stall affect everyday driving? I am planning on installing yank 3000 stall on a 04' 5.3.
Current mods, shorty headers, corsa cat back, nelson tune (60 tm removed), volant air intake.
Before the Yank is installed I plan on installing 4.10 gears, a transgo shift kit and getting 80% tm removed.
I am just curious on how the stall will affect daily driving.

With a 3,000 stall, you may notice just a touch of difference for around town driving... but for the most part, light throttle every day driving will not be effected.
I would recommend a shift kit to improve the band holding ability like you're doing, and the 4:10 gears are what come stock in the Silverado SS, so you're going to like those too!

I just went from a 2000 stall and 3.42s to a 3000 stall and 4.10s. Stoplight to stoplight is different in that it takes more throttle to effect any movement from a stop, ie, "looseness". It takes only a short time to get used to this. At anything over 50% throttle, it really makes a B-I-G difference, as it puts the motor higher into the power curve as well as reducing shift extension. It honestly feels like I just got 50 more horsepower with the stall and gears.

Not to rob the thread but how does a stall work? i always thought that it meant the truck won't move until the rpms hit 2800, 3000, whatever stall you have. please excuse my ignorance but i don't speak transmission. sorry about the thread rob but this looked like a good place to ask!

it will move, but the torque is multiplied more at the rated stall..
I have a 3500, and the truck will move at 1/4 throttle, but very slowly..
full throttle, and it will jump out and embarass someone

I have the TT3000 and you will notice a slight difference from stock in the way it feels. You will notice it a little but until you stand on it a little it will not slip that much. If I put the truck in gear and let off the brake it will move at idle, but something looser like a Vig or Hughes maybe and you will have to add some throttle to get it to move. I rode in a truck that had a 2800 Vig and it wouldn't move unless it was at about 12-1600 rpms, but the Vigs have a better hit off the line then a Yank which equals to better 60ft times if you can hook up. Also in the past Yank customer service seemed to suck. I have not heard of too many problems w/ PI (Vig). Hope that helps...Zed

It's not a stall. A *converter* has a rated 'stall' speed.
A converter, if choosen right and not to drastic will make everyday driving more enjoyable than the stock verter. It will even tow betterif you have a good tranny cooler.
