NEW STALL GOING IN..

[1JEWLDSSRS]

Well took my "Bad Nasty" Ruby (thanks Chris) for the new name!! lol. Took her up to the shop today to FINALLY get my new Circle D 5C 4000-4200 converter installed to replace the Precision 3200 I have in there now. I can't wait to get her back. After that she is going down to south Fl for a re-tune on the trans and converter. I just hope that all this is going to be what I was hoping for and not be disappointed, again. The way the cam pulls I'm sure that this will get the job done for me, as the 3200 just didn't get me up to where the cam wanted it in the RPM's. Had a slow spot up to 4000, then watch out, rocket ship!!

I'm going to bet that slow spot is going to disappear.

With your cam “swapping to that converter will make it like whole different car!”

Well the new stall is in and I pick up the Camaro on Monday, they are closed all weekend and I didn't have time to pick her up today, then it's off to the tuner down south to re-tune the trans and converter. Asked my mechanic how she drives and he said it drives ok, just that it wants to hold on to the shifts longer than the 3200 did, and my tuner said it would do that, and my tuner said that it would not shift at all at WOT. So I have a 2.5 hour road trip down to the tuner next week to get her all squared away. Can't wait!!

Well here goes my friends, I would have never guessed that my Camaro could have run any better than it did already, and be any quicker, but just add a Circle D 5C 4000-4200 stall to the equation and man watch out!!! Holy crap man!! What a wild difference for sure!! She was an animal before with the cam and 3200 stall, but this 4000-4200 retuned has made her a MONSTER for sure. Night and day difference. Cool thing about it is she doesn't drive any different on the highway or around town and in parking lots that the 3200 did, totally docile to say it properly. You can tell it is a higher stall when you just push on the pedal cause it revs higher to move the car the same amount as before.
Driving on the interstate at 75mph with the cruise on she maintained a trans temp of around 169-170 which I like. When you romp on it at that speed it flashes up to around 4800-5000, down shifts and away you go! We got up to 110mph in a matter of about 5 secs, then let off, wow that was fun. People were doing around 80-85 or so and I would let them get right up to my left rear quarter, and they were gaining, then I would romp on it and just watch them get left behind very quickly, amazing, the 3200 wouldn't do that for sure.
Driving around town is even more fun, driving in sport mode and letting the converter, do what it does is awesome, more so than the 3200. Leaving the line she will rev rev up to around 3200-3400 and just cruise along as it shift gears smoothly and the RPM's don't drop very much, maybe 100-150 or so.Also he has the manual mode put in auto lock he called it, this way in any manual gear I'm in the converter is locked and I use this to cool the temps back down after some "spirited driving. From a dead stop when you romp on it she flashes up to around 4800-5000 blisters the tires thru 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear!! So I know what I need next!! Some DR's for sure, even rolling along at 35mph or so and you get on it they just light em up. So now I have to be gentle on the throttle leaving the line so as to not smoke em. When doing a WOT pull she pulls like nothing I have ever felt, except my friends 2003 10 sec Cobra, just seems to want to keep going and not stop!! Wow what an awesome feeling, and difference for sure!
All I can say is I am very impressed with this cam and converter combo and couldn't imagine if I had a 3.91 of 4.10 gear how much quicker she might be. Awesome. So in my words and thanks to you guys out there running these big converters that helped me see the light, thanks for making my girl a NEW monster, and more pleasure to drive. And for all you guys that are skeptical about running a 4000 or bigger stall with your cam, don't be. When it is tuned correctly it's pretty much like driving a stock one, only a tad looser, but the performance gain from it is "off the chart" in my book in the fun catagory. So glad I went with this converter for sure. Hope this sums it up for you all and go getcha one ! lol..

Awesome to hear and Im with you on the high stall converters, It is amazing how much better these cars perform and we were so scared to do it!!! Now you just need the gears!!!
