    Will a 2500 flash, 2100 stall, still pull away from stop at low rpm(1000)or less?
    450-500hpish, 401, pulls Hard from 2-2500rpm-6000rpm , 727, 3:55 gear, 4800lb pickup.
    Trying to buy a off the shelf budget TC.
    Don't want to be slipping at 2000rpm! (45-50mph).

    Looking for some real world experience.
    Thanks (building a jr version of farm truck?).
    It will be quicker than it looks!

    I thought one of the factors was the tolerance between the impellers. I've seen a camero in the 9's be very mild mannered and street able. Then when it hit stall it was a different animal.
