Stall question
I'm looking at some different converters as I want to get my car to stop pulling on the brakes. I'm thinking something like a 2800 (if thats a loose enough converter) since its a street car, and I don't plan on going to the track more than once or twice.
Not really sure what my options are for stickier rear tires, but as it is I already spin too easily so I'm not sure if a bigger converter would even be advantageous for me. Anyway let me know what you all think And I have 3.23 gears btw |
Nitto tires are awesome, The NT555R is a really good tire, But if you want crazy grip, the NT05R is a pretty serious Street/mostly strip radial, I wouldnt recommend it for street use, but the NT555R should give you the perfect balance between a good street tire, and nice grip at the track. As for a stall, im not sure on that one.
|
I personally hate shittos. I loved my Mickey Thompson drag radials.
|
for a stall id say go for a ss3200 if u dont want anything to crazy but still enough to have fun....and i loved my nitto 555rs
|
Nittos if they are run right hook just fine at the track with an auto stalled and driven right.
And all I can say is a yank ss3200 drives like stock on Last Of A Breeds trans am! But wen you matted it she opened up |
I have a 3200 just as pizza stated... I personally want more so I'll be upping to a 4000 or 4400 soon
|
I wants!!!!!!

you should look into revmax converters, they make a good quality converter at very reasonable pricing

Had car 1 year on 4th set lol half way threw them too lol
|
the skinny pedal on the right.....DONT TOUCH IT!
|
Lol I tried using the left today and fluid sprayed everywhere. Right 1 is the only 1 that works on demand
|
555r2's dont hook that well at the track then dont give enough on the sidewall. i say run 555r's if your gunna street strip on one set of wheels. if your gunna Race Race and run a separate setup for the track get sticky mickeys or hoosier.
|
As far as handling goes with Nitto drags, I personally love the way they handle. The knock on them is always the sidewall flex, but honestly with a 40 series tire it's not that noticeable, and even if there is a little flex they still stay stuck relentlessly. Plus having more grip in the back of the car than the front completely changes the balance of the car and makes it more predictable and frankly less scary at the limits of cornering.
|
The 555r's were used alot by road racers when they first came out. There is not much sidewall flex in them.Just air then up to 35lbs on the street.
The SS3200 is a great converter. Revmax is junk in comparison. Ussually you get what you pay for in converters. |
just run the trans low on fluid, itll give ya that loose converter feel, for a little while. lol
|
Hahahaha Nice!!!!!
|
I've got a fti 4200 that's setup for nos and drives very close to stock in stop and go. Also running a 28 nitto for now and they work ok. They drive good and do a resonable job at the track
|
Yank SS3600 or Vigilante 3600 hands down or Circle D....christ i drove my 4800 around just burnt a little extra gas lol
|
from what I have seen and with personal expirence the best 3 converters on the market for our cars are Neal Chance, Circle D, and Yank. For your particular goals and application I would highly recommend a Yank SS3600. this is a PERFECT street converter for a Bolt on only LT1 and would work well with a cam if it is in your future.
|
Yank, ATI, PTC, ProTorque, Neal Chance, Ultimate Converters, cant go wrong with any of those.
From my experience, DONT cheap out on the converter, it sucks having to buy a new one when you blow through it.. |
Not to mention when you loose the converter it could take the transmission along with it
|
Thanks for all the responses guys, I went with a yank converter. They were having a tax return sale so it was good timing for me. I went ahead and ordered a trans too, I think I burned something up in the stocker at the end of last summer. 4th and OD were acting weird so I said F it might as well do the trans while its on the lift. Just need to get it all tuned in and I'll be set.
|
Nice, you'll be happy with the Yank
