Default Have 2 converters-which one? Turbo car

I have a TCI Super Streetfighter 3600 & a Yank 2800 or 3000, dunno as the guy who I bought the car from couldnt remember.
The car will be a 98 SS, forged 347 with a 78mm front mount & a Speed Inc TU1 cam. 4L60E & Moser 9" w/3.25 gears. Which converter do I need to run?

Put the yank in, I have the exact TCI one and I am gonna be buying a tighter convertor next year, prob go something like 3000-3200.

I dont really have any issues with the TCI but first gear is kinda laggy, I cant make boost till over 4000 on the brake.

10-4. That is kinda what I was expecting & that will probably work out better for me anyway.

It will be a few months. Im gonna demod my GTO and try to sell it before I spend much more on the Camaro. My buddy needs a converter, and I was planning on pulling the TCI out of the goat anyway. Didnt know if I wanted to keep it and sell him the Yank out of the Camaro or vice versa.

cool deal.. i was talking with speed inc about that cam and you could get away with something as tight as 2800-3000 with it but wouldnt be able to build much boost... the 3400 should be right and is what i plan on running
