3500 stall on 94 lt1

I was thinking about junking my B&M 2400 and putting in a 3500 stall and 3:73's in my 94 Z.

Saw a TCI 3500 for around 500 bucks..

Is this good , Bad?? Any problems with PCM and the 3500 stall...??

Is 3:73 a good ratio with this setup?

any ideas would help tremendously.

Current mods in SIG.

Try the torque converter first, before you change the rear end gears. You will have to talk to ED Wright about the OBD1 programming. It will need to be addressed to work the OBD1.

Is the TCI a lock-up converter?

I'd recomend an EDGE converter. I've got one on my car. They are by far one of the most efficent converters in that price range. I got mine $530 shipped it was a 3400 lock-up built to my car and power. I gained .7 and 2MPH with mine in the 1/4.

One Year warrenty and 1 free restall.

Not many people are using them, but have heard good from all that have. Their website is...

3:73's and 3500 stall on 94. Good or Bad?

Im not sure if the TCI is lock-up or not.

If the edge is good then I might go that route.. 7 tenths is a lot of time in the 1/4.

Does PCM for less offer a fix for the 3500 on an OBD1??

Ya, I'm pretty sure PCMforless has a fix for the stall wall problem with OBD1

Re: 3500 stall on 94 lt1

So everyone agrees that 3500 stall with 3:73's is a good set-up?

just wondering what you guys think.
