LS1+Stall=Fun
I just got my car back after having a Yank SS3600 and tune done. WOW, what a difference. I really didn't think a stall made such a difference. I have no traction below 50 mph, but I need to burn the tires off to make room for some Mickeys anyway  . I'm now a believer in two pedals can be just as fun as shifting. I have to give thanks to Race Proven Motorsports in Claymont DE for doing the work, they have a clean shop, answered all my questions, and there prices we're very fair. Now I can't wait until Atco opens up to see what she'll do.

when i had my 93 z28 the converter sometimes wouldn't start to engage until about 2500ish rpm on cold starts. if i punched it was just sidewaysssss on my goodyears.
always loved it when it did that though. wish i had the money to do one in my car.

The stock 3.23, I'm hoping I don't destroy the rear or the trans when I put the DR's on

Right now I would say it's piss poor considering the amount of time the pedal has kissed the carpet. But it drives just like it always has on the highway, I'm guessing it would take a hit driving around town, but if you kept your foot out of it I can't see it being that bad. My mods are Lid, Catback, and Stall

me, personally, i hate when my car stalls...i would think it was a problem to drive my car and have it stall. glad you like it though.
However, the LS1 cars I've been in with higher stall torque converters were a lot of fun. Typically just that with a few stupid mods is close to mid 12s.

Thats what I'm shooting for, I'll be happy with 12.70's and really happy with 12.50's, and even happier if my tranny and rear hold up.

Ya That car is sweet, Mines not quite the freak his is. The best I was hitting before the stall was 13.2 @107. But since then I changed the plugs and wires got the tune and Stall done, All I need now is some DR's and Atco to open.

Get some headers on that thing, a nice flowing catback, ported TB, and some sticky tires, you'll be right there!

I already have the catback, But headers and LS6 intake in next. Actually DR's are next, I'm working on them now. I definately need some traction before I add any more Hp.
