Default Need help deciding on converter.

Well, I am ditching my craptastic b&m and I was thinking of going with a 3200 vig. but I was also looking at a tcs converter. Does anyone know much about them or have good/bad experiences with a tcs verter? Do you think the vig is a better option. I really dont want to spend the extra $200 on the vig but if its that much better I will. Any other suggestions are welcome. My car is a street/strip car, mostly street. Cam is .544/.560 232/242 @ .50 on a 112 lsa though I am thinking of switching it out for something that peaks a bit lower.

vig 3200 will do fine for your mods.

I thought about getting maybe even a 3400 vig., but lt1's dont like the high stall as much as the ls1's do. I will have to call Prec. Eng. and see what they think. Where is the cheapest place to pick up a Vig? Do the ones for ls1 cars fit lt1 cars?
