4500 Stall In Vl - 4500 stall in vl  

Toy32

mate of mine has one in a wb ute but its a v8 and its nuts on the streets.. not a good idea for street driving..
only good for a weekend car..

Rancher

Thats a big stall for a street driven car... Is there any reason for that? Or is it just to be hektic?

BlownBMW

ran 4500-4800's behind V8's, I don't recomend for regualar street use, moreso for just a tough weekend cruiser/drag car

SKID IT

is this koby with the bt1 running senators?

koby

t51r on car !

yeah i also wouldn't recomend 4500 stall for a street driven car, as i use to build them 3500-3800 should be well enough...
what kind of power do you have?

Mick (highlander69) had a VY SS with heads and big cam LS1 ran 10.xx at W/Bank and had a 5000rpm stall and was daily driven, there were no dramas with that...bit different in torque i spose to the RB thou

DAN-O

must have some good work done to require a stall of that size?? either way spend the bucks and buy a new stall built to your engine/driveline specs as not all stally's are the same. You could buy a 100 second hand ones and still not get any of them to work correctly..do it right the first time..

Thats a big stall man is it just for street? if so i would just go a 2500

BlownBMW

way to small lol, even i run a 3k in my BMW, and its just a standard engine with turbo strapped to it,

go to somewhere that builds converters man, let them know what ur wanting to use the car for, they can build you a stally that will be spot on

i've seen alot of people come in & ask for huge stalls with little power & they just dont do the job the same if its not built right.
as dano said get a new one, tell them your specs & they will build one from scratch...
red diamond stall converters are pretty good, well they use to be when i worked there & before they sold the business to ASNU..

I have a 4200 with no drama driving on the street. Although my car is lighter than a Como

I'm running a 3700 in the Monaro and its more than streetable, although mines a V8 with a fair amount of work done to it.

Doesn't a high stall slip more and so use more fuel and get hotter as well? What is the point of running a high stall on a street car, seems like one of those 'look at me hot car' fads.

Marlin

Did you all miss it, he said he's running a T51R (its a big turbo).

It likely wont make real boost until 4/4.5k so this kind of stall is required.

Do you have a dyno sheet showing where the engine makes power/torque?

260DET

I know bugger all about stalls but have been told that for a road/circuit car like mine around 2500, so below turbo spool up speed. Drag is different, I understand that, but street?

Marlin

lol Rich, I'm assuming he's not planning on circuit racing an auto VL.........

260DET

This bloke does

koby

Not making real power till 4600 rpm. Ive got a 2800 stall no good with trans brake. Been told to go to 4500 rpm stall by GZM/ Keas. Just would like to know what it is like to drive on the street. 400+ hp. Thanks

It all depends if its "tight" or "loose" as to how it will behave on the street. Don't fuck around with bodgy backyard @#$!s. If your mates car is making the power that turbo is capable of supporting then a good converter can be the difference between a car that is a rocket or a pig.
4500 is easily streetable.
No point in getting a 2500 converter just so it behaves(eg goes like a dog cause of lag).

4000 or 4200 stall will be sweet

Hammer

I've got a 5500 stall in a VZ SS Ute and that is street driven. I have no problems on the street.

JUST THROW ONE IN AND SEE.
