Basically, something that will feel "stock" until hammered (i.e. no real "jerkiness" on an easy takeoff) Will 2800 accomplish this?

Also, I have based a lot of decisions on research, and a few from people's opinion on this forum, as far as i know, all of which are well informed...I have not seen any "wannabees" (pls. this is not flaming ANYONE).
My 3600 stall takes off fine with no jerkiness. I'm running a precision industries stall supposed to be one of the best. Check out www.converter.com, i also heard edge racing where good, www.edgeracing.com. 2800 should be great but like that other guy said get a stall matched to your engine. If your going to go with the xcam i'd get something closer to 3500. My setup consists of ported gt40ps, ported explorer intake, ecam all the boltons and i think my 3600 stall is perfect for my setup. It drives like stock if your soft on the pedal but throws you back when you nail it. I ran a best of 13.2 @ 104 on street tires with a 2.0 60' at the track on Wednesday. Pretty much stock suspension, i'm hoping with some suspension and maybe Drag Radials to hit a high 12. Then it's boost or spray. The car is very very consistent which is nice and will run the same time over and over with little effort. If you ever are around San Marcos i'd be glad to take you for a ride.
