Default Coverter help

When I get my LS1, I was looking to put a 3200 stall in it along with LT headers, catted y pipe, and TSP rumbler exhaust,lid,and possibly an LS6 intake, pending my funds...Will I notice a difference with the converter? Will my rear end be weakened, I know 10 bolts are time bombs...? Please help...

You will notice a difference.

I've known of guys with a 3600 stall that have been running their stock 10 bolt for years.

I also know guys that have blown their 10 bolt on the first pass with a stock verter.

It all depends on how you do it.

tense the car up to 1200-1400 rpm and then launch is much easier on the diff than ding a neutral drop.

A verter will let you feel more of a difference than your other planned mods. It is one of the best things to do with an A4. Your rear may or may not explode! Mine didn't but others blow on the street when the car is still stock.
