With 218 degrees intake duration you could probably get away with a converter like mine, 2100 stall. It pretty much feels like stock converter with a tad more stall. If I power brake it I can only get the rpm's to like 1600 before the tires break loose. If your going for a real suck your eyeballs into the back of your head feel you need AT LEAST a 2400 stall. I would probably go with 2800-3100 stall just to be sure. This is about the limit of stall while retaining drivability.
Just wondering, hows the idle and throttle response of the HOT cam compared to the L98?
