I suggest 3400 or larger. If you want more out the hole also look for a higher STR.
I had a 3800/2.5 with my 2.73's and wouldnt have had it any smaller.

I also love your movies!!! lol

I would NOT look into a 2.5 STR if he is going to run street tires. He will NOT hook up at all. I would suggest a 3400 with a 2.2

he's asking for trouble any way he looks at it trying to run a street tire. Just go buy a BFG or MT and have the best of both worlds. It makes no sense to get a converter and spin out the hole on street tires. you'll be throwing ET out the door. tires arent that expensive.

How would a car with a loose converter and granny gears feel?

There is no problem with a big converter and small gears. Right now I have a 4400 with the TRex and stock 2.73 gears but they will soon be replaced with 4.10s (maybe 3.73s, still undecided).
