5300 stall.
Other than that, and in reality, a 3g stall, a huge cam, 4.11's, and a tune.

I was going to say either a blower or Turbo fitted will definitely make you faster ... won't solve your tracton problems though.

Converters are definitely fun - something around 3000 should be nice, but anything over 2700 or so, you'll either need an edit, or a shiftkits.com.au module to stop limp home mode kicking in.

My last car with a 2700 converter and 3.45 lsd kicked sideways nicely off the line, so if that's all your after, should do the job nicely!

Either that, or a turbo can end all resemblance of traction!!!
