I have an FTI 3600 on a bolt on car. I love it, still have stock 323 gears. Around town yes you can tell a little but not bad at all greatest thing I have done so far.

You will find alot of people that say go with this or that company, whatever. I liked Greg at FTI so I bought from them and I am very happy.

Find a company then have them build you a stall that matches your car. Do not at all go with less than a 3600, it would be a waste.

cool ive searched and searched and found a lot of companies but I just dont know who to go with i mean i know some i cant afford their stall but some company prices are affordable but still picking the right company is like trying to pick the right best painter and the right color for your car.

I have a used Precision Industries Vigilante 4000 stall for sale right now that I just pulled from my working 4l60e. Reason why I pulled it is because I'm going w/ a 4l80e trans. Approximately 7,500 miles on it. It's a 9.5", lock-up, billet front cover. Not a damn thing wrong with it. Would work great for you as my cam was pretty similar to yours. Let me know if you're interested.
