PadreGto has done this :hail:lanseman said:I was wondering if anyone has put in a higher stall speed convertor in a daily driver. If so what model and would u buy same again or go wilder.

What are the differences in normal driving that you notice? 3600 is about as high as I have heard. A lot of folks say anything above 31-3300 is too high for normal driving. I would love to go 3600 if it is okay.Wavydavy GTO said:I put a Yank SS3600. I really like it. Driving around town is just fine but when you nail it, it feels like launching out of the tube in Battlestar Galactica (dated myself). I'll have the Magnacharger done tomorrow so we'll see how it is then.

That only dates you to last year as SciFi is redoing the series. The pilot miniseries aired in like November I think of last year with the full series to start in January. I'm excited but I do miss the Egyptian motifs. I wonder if they'll remake Buck Rogers next..Hmm...Beady beady beady.Wavydavy GTO said:I put a Yank SS3600. I really like it.

So those of you above 2800 how is this effect of not moving until you get closer to the higher stalls affecting you? Is it annoying? Gas Mileage? I do maybe 30 minutes of stop and go each day. What do you thinK? I want to be going to the drags fairly regularly starting next year but this beast is also my daily driver.PadreGTO said::drink:

Actually, I use that smiley to represent being "on the bottle", i.e. nitrous.Tails said:Padre,

Tails,
I have sent a couple of PM's without a reply. I originally posted about dealership service.
Anyway, I also will be racing at Pacific Raceways next year. In fact I hope to make it out this year! Get in touch with me.

I believe the GTO autos have a trans cooler in the radiator, but I don't know that for certain.WhiteRhino said:I dont know if the GTO comes with a tranny cooler besides the radiator.But,i figured i'd throw in if your going to get a TC,you diffently need a tranny cooler.The extra heat generated from the TC will kill your tranny in short time.Esp. in stop and go traffic.Even when i was running a stock TC in my TA i still was running a 28k lb tranny cooler.
