Default LS1tech converter sponsors come inside

I'm looking into purchasing a converter and I don't know who all the sponsors are so I guess I'm pitting you all against each other. Prices need not be be posted here, please pm me if this is a concern.

1999 Camaro SS A4 36k miles
This is a factory slp car with full suspension, slp exhaust, whisper lid, LPE GT12 cam, LPE dual spring kit with hardened pushrods, and pacesetter headers. This will be the extent of my power mods. I believe the tranny will handle that power, but if not let me know. Please advise on recommended converter. This car will see very little track time if any..mostly just a street car. Thanks in advance!

Just to confirm, your car has a 3.73 rear?
Researching the GT12 cam, it appears to be 227/235 .614 .621 115LSA, which comes out to 1* of overlap.

Our SRLS series converter will fit perfectly. I don't see any need for a triple disk since its mainly a street car. that being said drivability will depends on your stall setup, I PM'ed you a message with a link to our build sheet so we can determine the best converter for your combination.

I myself with my basic long tube intake basic suspension car with part time track am looking at getting the FTI converter in the future. Looks like a good deal. I think it goes to 3,200

Ss3200/3600 from Yank would really wake the car up. Or hit up chris at circle d for something similar even though he never refunded my shipping money like he promised

PM'd sir.

OP, We would be happy to help as well. You would be looking at our 245mm Billet Pro Series converter. This diameter would be great for a street car with these mods. I agree that something in the 3600 range would give you the performance you want without causing excessive drivability issues. Please let us know if we can be of assistance.

For heavy towing I definitely recommend a triple disc.
