Never said the fastest ones weren't high stalls, makes perfect sense. but I be willing to bet they don't see a whole lot of street time. And yes you do have to match the whole drivetrain but I believe he said he had 3.42's and I am assuming stock 16 or 17 inch wheels. Like I said on a stock car the ss 3200-3600 is, IMO the best compromise, taking into account tire size, gearing, cam selection etc. But really the best bet is to find some to drive and see how you like it. And I stand firm on the you tube video opinion. You can throw out facts and RPM bands all day long but until you feel it you can't possibly get a true opinion. You can't feel the throttle response or the cars reaction through a video you can only guess.

So anyway long story short find some to drive and see what you like. You can plan it out on paper all day and have it be nothing like you expected
