<div> Let me summarize... A 2800 stall is a decent compromise for a street driven truck with a reasonable horsepower goal. Find a horsepower target and build your truck for that, not the other way around. I mainly disagree with what dennis is "smokin," especially if we are talking female sheep...<br>

Thanks D.O. for
your suggestions. Will the 2800 stall TC be good enough for a somewhat larger
turbo in the future like a PTE setup?<br>

[Syty] 700r4 trans</div>
<div><br>
</div>
I got a few quick questions for everybody. My friend has a
1991 Camaro<br>
and he's willing to sell me his 700r4 trans for like a
$100. Is there<br>
any difference between that trans and the stock one in
my 1993 Ty? If<br>
not, any recommendations on what upgrades to do to it
(please specify<br>
brand names) like what torque convertor company to use
and is a 3000<br>
stall ok, what shift kit should I use, and what trans
cooler should I<br>
use? My Ty is pretty much stock except for minor mods
like setting<br>
timing to 0, AFPR, re-routed intercooler lines (removing
the metal lines<br>
for hoses), Ultimate chip, Walbro HP pump, scan tool,
cap/rotor, Iridium<br>
NGK plugs, 8.5mm wires, etc. My Ty has 104,400 miles
on it, ran best of<br>
13.36 @ 101 mph, 1.8? 60'. stock turbo @ 18 psi on
93 octane with a<br>
little knock at full throttle (not sure if false
because of the<br>
upshifts), fuel pressure @ 54 with vac line off, 32 lb
lucas green<br>
stripe injectors. Any and all help welcome. Hope this will
create a<br>
little discussion out there. Thanks again.<br>
