the stall convertor will hold it there at 1500-2000 even if you floor the gas its a gm safety try it press the brake all the way and then floor the pedel while holding the brake and watch it hold then release the brake

[anthonyj9h]

once you get your torque converter it wont brake stall till 2800 or whatever stall you get

They are saying that the V6 needs a higher stall than usual. They are testing at 3400-3600.

like I told Blade, one thing you can do is use your big toe on your left foot to just barely hold the brakes and then slip it off the pedal instead of lifting your foot. slightly faster, but takes practice.

also, getting your tires prepped and warmed properly. Blade likes to let out too soon during his burnout. but finding the sweet spot where your brake is to the floor and you slowly rev up to find where you overcome the brakes and spin the tires. then go about 2-300 rpms less than that at the start line for your launch.

From what I gather because we put out less torque and we need a higher stall to get us into our power band.

JESUS!!! you are just going to burn rubber there unless then the wheel hop begins unless you have drs that hook really well and are hot enough to get traction

Makes sense. What is a V6's RWTQ?

They are installing one this week. So I'm waiting to see. There is a whole post of SC0125 talking about it on BV6.
