Ok, I'm getting a Speedtek F1 cam (230/226 .592/.569 112+2) and a set of MAC midlengths this week, and I've been trying to find a used converter to run for awhile. Well, I found a 3200 Vigilante converter for a good price and I had planned to buy it. I was told however that with this cam, I wanted at least a 3600 stall converter, since the power with this cam doesn't come in until 3300. I am having to go the inexpensive route right now due to a new house, but I don't want to put together a combo that I'll regret later or want to change immediately. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Tci 3800 stall would be a good converter for you.

the vig 3200 stalls to 3800rpm on a stock ls1.

I would rather go with a new higher stall converter, but I'm getting a great deal on the headers and cam and I am trading out my stock cam and manifolds for the ones that I'm getting. (so if I want to go anywhere I have to have a TC when we trade out next weekent) I can't afford the TC that I really want right now, but I need something that would work ok for a few months until I could get a better one. Would I be able to get by with the 3200 or is it just a huge mistake?

So this converter ought to work just fine if I'm understanding you right.

it'll probably stall higher than 3800 if your car has more torque

Vig converters are underrated, a 3200 will acually be around 3800 on a stock car.

That vig will work fine for you. If you want every last ounce of performance, you need to move higher, but the 3200 will make a huge improvement over stock and have decent in town feel.
