Single Disc VIG for Blower Car??? Guys I recieved my 4L80E tranny in the other day and now I am looking for Converter options, I have talked to Yank and Vigalante about their converters along with a few venders. I am wanting to stay around the 3200-3400 range and the car will be making around 650-675RWHp and about 600RWTQ.
The car is a VRE 383, LT4 AFR heads, D1SC procharger maxing the blower out (so about 15lbs on this motor)
I am leaning toward the Vig since my brother has a 3600 in his Ls1 bolt on car and has always performed great. I have heard that the single, Triple, and Five disc clutches inside the converter really don't help handle power but handle locking up the converter in overdrive. From what I have been told since I have a 99% street car the single disc will work fine???
The car will be backed by a 3:42 rearend and I just want tight converter, the 3600 with 3:73 gears felt loose to me.

Hey man, yea didn't know that was you till now, lol. If I didn't drive the car everyday and I didn't care for looser stall with the 3:42's I would slap 4.10's with around a 4200 in the thing 
The car SHOULD be done at the breach of summer, just enough time to have fun. What sucks is I will be taking it to Ed with the 10-bolt most likely, I could buy a 12-bolt right now but I have too many other things to buy. Looks like I will just spin for a few months then goes on the 12-bolt with the Bogarts

There was a 03 cobra pullied, exhaust, tune guy claimed 547RWHP but I say more along the lines of about 447RWHP, lol ahh maybe 460 or so. Race one Jeff got out of it before 60 (30 roll) got sideways pretty bad, second race jeff had a full car on the guy til 3rd and the guy missed it so they were both crappy races 1 and 1 I guess.
Jeff also raced Duke (the guy who tinted his windows, lol) he has the 69 camaro with the LS1 and the MS3 6-speed with 4:10's they were side and side basically with Jeff barely edging him out. Closes race he has had he told me.
Phil was out there and he beat the cobra from a Roll as well, but Hadley was driving (thats an extra 350lbs no problem, no offense to him but hes a pretty big guy) Phil is letting hadley tune that car, I have two words Ed Wright. Do it once do it right IMO.
There are a couple of kids from paragould who have bought LS1 cars that are factory 99-00 models that think they are the ****, other than that thats about it.
I can't wait to see Chris's car with the 6.0 in it, I wonder if the extra 18 cubes or so will get him a 6, I believe it will.
