Yes, 4L60E lockup. Match your TC choice with cam, gears. etc. Vig 3200 new for $300 is hard to pass up. Otherwise, 3500 rpm stall even if daily driver. If the car is your only means of transportation, choose parts wisely!

The vig3200 actually stalls closer to 3500, buddy has one and it flashes to 3450 from a dead stop. I'd personally be leary about buying a stall from someone other than a vendor, but if it is in fact brand new....$300 is awfully hard to pass up.

If you buy a used stall, you need to send it back to PI and have them do a cut and clean. UNless someone can provide proof that the converter was just freshened up I would not put a used stall in the car.
