Default Fuddle 3400 stall TC

I know were I can get the Fuddle 3400 stall torque converter for cheap.... My car is a daily driver and I plan on going forced induction in the future. What do you guys think? Is the stall too high for a DD? Please help.

I'm thinking this would be too high of stall for DD. But MexGT has a 3500 stall on his car and very happy with it.

You would have problems with traction though.

Get a PI instead (so you can tell me how that goes). I have heard they are better quality. I am looking at getting one really soon. Let us know how it goes whichever route you go!

The PI will be an extra $400 though.

I am going to do a driveshaft, torque converter, deep sump tranny pan, change to FRPP 3.73 (3.90s whine too much) and a detroit tru-trac all at the same time. Might as well do it all while its up in the air.

These Eaton Detroit Truetrac differentials use a patented design of parallel-axis planetary helix gears to provide a quiet, automatic splitting of torque. They perform like an open differential under normal driving conditions, automatically transferring torque to the wheel with better traction when ground conditions warrant.

The stock differential tends to slip, so if you are launching from a dead stop only one wheel will get traction. If both wheels have traction then you will have lower ET's
