stall rpm change with tq change
« on: June 21, 2019, 05:26:15 AM »
 Some random thinking got me ot wondering. Is there a rule of thumb for how much stall will increase with x amount of tq increase.

Reason. Wondering how much stall speed wil increase with tq increase from load of nitro. I know ideal would be half dozen converters for each comb,but being rich is ideal too and not working(YET). After few post about tires and needing to get wheel speed I started thinking(usually not good) a little more tq would get more wheel speed if all other approaches failed. Can run numbers on Spuds TQ calculator. Knowing how much stall I might change will help figure where too much is just extra fun.

For any interested I received a answer on another site. Stall dived by square root of TQ(old combo)= K factor.K factor x square root of new TQ = stall. my combo with 860 tq 6600 stall.  Adding strong load nitro moived tq up 1056 tq which after math moves stall to about 7300 a 700 jump. Yea getting away from my tq curve and may cause me not to get full gains on track that I would think,but I know where part of it is. Now I just need to get testing real world instead of on paper.Just before  being told I thought I would throw it out there.LOL

Chris from the little bit that I have learned from running a small amount of nitro you are better of not changing things like gear ratios and tighter converters ! When I first tried it I was over thinking and put a tight converter in the car and saw very little gain ! I put the looser converter back in and saw a bigger gain ! That is with 20% in the tank It will make more power but not earth shattering !
