Just an FYI(if zip ties dont hold the shaft to the body for you) and money saver, unbolt the front driveshaft flange, mark the center spline in front of the center support bearing and remove the front half only. It keeps you from needing to remove and replace the rear flange bolts. The center support bearing bolts were frozen in the one i worked on and was a pain to get off as well.
@@nicklashway6636 pretty sure Wikipedia’s data is incomplete because the S600 and the SRT use the same variant of the transmission and the S600 has 612lbft stock. There used to be another row in that chart about power ratings that had one made for 737lbft. They aren’t going to use a transmission in the SRT that has only a couple of lbft of wiggle room.
@@kylepartridge5090 I own an srt8 and yes, that is what the transmission is rated for. The name of the transmission is W5A580. The 580 part of the name stands for 580 nm. I'm not making this up. There is no argument here. Mercedes produced several variations of this trans. It's rated for 428 ft lbs but it does hold up to more than that. 500 ft lbs is where things start to get iffy
Question: how did you determine what stall to get? People are telling me 3000 - 3500 stall...but my tuner said 1800 - 2400 stall... 2012 300c 5.7L Headers Exhaust CAI Ram air hood TSP STAGE 3 CAM MDS DELETE Hellcat Lifters DYNO Tuned Thanks in advance!
I went off of the advice that a company who is no longer in business gave me. It was single-handedly the worst advice that I ever received in regards to my charger. I would not go below a 3800 stall on that car if I had to make a decision again. Depending on the powerband of your car I would go off of a tuners recommendation. I would talk to Jay Greene and ask him exactly what he thinks. 1800 is the stock converter so I feel like going to a 3500 or higher is going to be your best bet
Yeah I should use breaker bars more, unfortunately they crap ones I had at this time had broke. you should never use a tourqe whench to loosen bolts though as it will ruin their calibration

Did you prefill the converter
Did you have to tune your tcm?
no I did not
I put a 2800 fti in mins and now it keeps stalling and I have a tcm code
Dope video just tuned my scat made 501 to the wheels but my tuner said ay go get yourself a 3600 stall and really smoke some people 💪💪
Does the stall converter absolutely need a tune?
Yes it will not drive right otherwise
Will the stock transmission hold 500whp?
It has for 10k miles so far
NAG1 is rated for 737 lbft torque, which boils down to being able to take over 700 hp on stock internals no problem.
@@kylepartridge5090 no it isn't. W5A580 is rated for 580 newton meters which is about 428 ft/lbs

Which one did you go with I have a 2011 300c with a stage 2 comp cam
Just order a fti 3200 for my srt8.. hope I be happy with it.. i wonder if it stall higher on slicks
How’d u like it was thinking of getting that
@@TexasRT581 don't think it was worth it. Think I should of went higher stall
@@williamlopez4934 bet exactly what I was thinking
@@TexasRT581 so my 3,200 will only go 2,700 on my 6.1 hemi
Man i just install a fti 3,200 converter i only get 2,700 stall..
damn that's not good, did you cont
act the company
@@ParaLefty i did and they said it should stall higher.. but in brake stall only get 2,600
But i do have a isky cam. I wonder if that have haves to do with anything
@@williamlopez4934 Cam shouldn't affect your stall. is your transmission tuned?
@@ParaLefty nope. But next month install a shift kit on the nag1
Good work. One thing I noticed. Instead of pounding with you hand, or with a hammer. Use a torque wrench, or breaker bar makes it easier.
Yeah I should use breaker bars more, unfortunately they crap ones I had at this time had broke. you should never use a tourqe whench to loosen bolts though as it will ruin their calibration
Hi I'm here
Sick!! lets see a video of that burnout.
Ill post it tonight
@@ParaLefty hell yeah! Go check out mine! Haha
