How much stall for a TPI?

OK, I'm sure this has been discussed several times, but I can't find anything specific in a search....

...how much stall would you recommend for an aftermarket TPI system? I currently have a B&M 11" 2400 stall. I'd like a 9.5", and I was thinking about maybe a 2800 stall. This is mainly a street car not a 1/4 miler. The 2400 stall was a great addition, and maybe it's perfect for my needs, I'm just looking for opinions.

The intake is stock at the moment, but the plan is for a aftermarket long tube set-up soon. I've got a ZZ4 cam with headers/exhaust too.

Thanks for the opinions.

OK...found some info. Seems that 2400 is just about right. Anyone care to throw out an opinion on that?

i would stick with the 2400stall unless you are running a big cam.

TPI max torque is around 3000 rpm, so anywhere near that would be ideal for getting off the line quick.
