Hi everyone!! I'm new to the forum and I have a question on stall converters , I have a 79 T/A that I have been working on and off for the pass few years. this is what I have ,400 with edelbrock performer-plus cam and lifter set duration is .050 as per cam card rpm range is from idle to 5500. 387 hp 439 ft -lbs I have their intake and carb also timing chain. I have factory 6x heads with new springs ,long tube headers pyres exhaust with x pipe ,th350 and 373 gears in the rear . question is were should I be with the stall converter . please keep in mind that this is my first build so I know I have made some mistakes. good news is it did fire up. before I forget tires are 26 inch tall . cam card also says I should be at 32 to 34 degrees advance between 3000-3500rpm which I am. motor idles just under 1000 I have a hole shot B&M that I purchased and was told it was 2200 stall but from what I have read they tend to slip with these engines .
