why cant i stall...?

ok i just had 3.73 posi setup in my rearend and before with the peg leg 2.73 i could stall to about 1250 RPMS now with the new gears/posi i can only stall to about 1300 RPMs with the same tire pressure. is this because i removed my rear anti-sway bar? it is off becaust i broke a bolt holding it on. i thought i would be able to stall a lil higher with a posi. whats up with this?

Gears and posi dont affect stall speed ! ! Your torque converter does !

Torque at the engine also has an effect on stall, but not as much as say going from a 1500 stall convertor to a 3000.

And what does THAT have to do with the rear end gears ? LOL Is this like your other reply to my post where you said I missed the obvious difference between a 305 and 350... the bore size ! DOH... not when you're looking at a complete running engine in a car ! LOL

sorry, the removing of the sway bar threw me off

Hey, 'brodyscamaro' the difference of 50RPM's might be do to varying trannie oil temps.
