RE: talk me into an AOD plz
im a little weary of a stall, just because its going to be a daily driver. ive ridden in a 88 z28 w. a shift kit, and it was impressive. if i did get an auto id have to get a shift kit. so what exactly does a stall do? i no its a stupid question, but explain it to me, hows it work, whats it do, etc. and plz, keep givin me reasons to get an auto, lol. thanks again.

well im not too sure what the stall does
i know it makes you go through the revs a lot faster
and w/ an auto..if you are in traffic..its great
you never have to worry about losing a race because "i missed a shift"
people will underestimate your car because its auto
but w/ a shift kit and stall you will kick their *** [same mods, etc]

A stall is basically like a clutch, it dose not fully engage the transmission until a cretin RPM depending on what kind of stall you get for a daily driver I would not recommend anything over say a 3000 RPM stall auto is the way to go more consistent times come out of an auto and there is less room for mistakes
