Stalls are a lot like stereos... Ever notice how cheap ones all claim their like 500 watts?? But when you buy a good high end system their only 1 or 200 watts but are three times as loud and ten times clearer?
If your going to bother with a stall at all I recommend respectively
Vigilante, Yank, Coan, Art Carr, edge, TCI, an d to be honest by the time you get to TCI I think I would rather just get the $90 Markham converter modified stocker. THey work just as well as the cheaper series of stall B&M included.
However... A good stall is worth its weight in gold. The difference in launch is pretty dramatic. Go for a ride in someones car who runs a Vigilante and see for yourself.
Just for reference; what is it that you don't like about it.
MAybe because it runs just like stock..I had an S10 converter and bumped it to its max stall and it was good for 1.899 60ft times on street tires.(This was with a 383EFI IROC)
So is that good. I don't know anything about 60 foot times and so on..lol
a tenth is a car length at the end of the 1/4 mile.A tenth faster on the 60 ft times is 2 tenths faster at the end of the 1/4 mile.Best 60 ft I had with the same tires was 2.3s
The TCI just feels very sloppy and barely stalls any more than my stocker did... I am no tranny guru, but I swear this thing is crap... I will go as far as letting anyone drive my car before they go and drop money on one to steer them in another direction!!lol Converters are very pricey so save up and get a good one, don't waste money like I did. Just so everyone knows, I have the 11" 'Breakaway' I believe?? It's been a few years so I could be wrong about the name.
