Thread: converter for perfomer RPM build

Tweet

I've got a sb 355 with a performer build and am looking to change the cam and intake to a performer RPM build by Edelbrock.
Intake #7101 and cam #7102. Was wondering if my current torqe converter would be ok to run? if not, how much stall should I be looking for? the vehicle is street use only.

thanks for the help

Hey sorry I didn't provide enough info: The intake is said to give better performance in the 1500 - 6500 rpm range and the cam specs are : lift .488/.510 duration 234/244.

thanks again

what gearing is your rearend? what size tires are you running?

A 2500 stall converter should be about right.

Make certain that you have between 10.0:1 and 11.5:1 static compression ratio before you try to run this cam. If you have less c.r. than that, the motor is gonna slow down and you won't be happy.
