oh just...you know...your average......SS4000 STALL!!!! 4000RPM I can't wait. I'm gonna need some ET Streets before too long. The TC weighs 40lbs! And it's a waterbed too, so keep that in mind!

From the reasearch, it doesn't seem like cam has any affect on the stall. I know gears do, which is why I got some 3.73's and I do need to tune it, but my goal is to put this car into the 11's with stock internals. You can match the cam to the stall for max performance out of the stall, but I don't got the money after all this for a cam, and it's not required to have the stall cut off a good .5-1.0 seconds off my 1/4, according to the research i've done, correct me if i'm wrong. I looked on LS1Tech.com via search and saw many nearly stock cars running gears and a 4000,4200, and 4400 stalls and running just fine. I also drove a car with 3.73's and a 4200 stall this past weekend and it was just rediculous amounts of fun, so that helped my decision, stock cam didn't seem to keep it from stalling to 4400 rpms and spinning the tires at 55mph I liked it.

the stall is to get the engine in the correct power band so cam makes the biggest difference (if you order from tci direct they won't even place the order without cam specs) it sounds like your doing the work backwards (I see that alot with the 4th gen guys) gears are a supporting mod to match engine parts (it's also dependant on cam)
