Well until the stall locks it is similar to a slipping clutch. Flat may not be the word for it but the car will not drive the same way it does now. Higher the stall speed further into the RPM range it will act like that. Using a 4000+ stall on a stock cam that starts making power at a much lower RPM never made sense to me on a street car. If it was a car that was more track oriented then hell yeah crank up the stall speed to knock down the ET. Have decide which is more important to you, the extra .2-.4 at the track or manners on the street. It will all boil down to personal taste and what you as the driver can tolerate. I for one would not go more then 3600 unless you have plans for at least a cam upgrade. I think 3200 is the sweet spot for a stock engine, nice bump in performance without slogging along at low RPM
