What Converter with my current mods?
This question probably get's asked a million times, but I had to ask. I want a converter that is streetable, and will kick *** with my current mods. I have a 1998 Z28, my mods are listed below.
G2 Airlid W/K&N, G2 Y-Pipe, Borla Catback, EGR Mod, Cold Air Mod, TB Bump Stop Mod, Whisper Ported MAF Ends, SLP Smooth Bellows, Hypertech, 160 T-stat, SLP SFC's, Motive 3.73's

First thing you'll have to lose the ported ends. They cause your computer to lower the line pressure in the tranny since they cause a lower load reading to the computer. Do a subject search for ported in the drivetrain forum and read up.
Having said that, I'd recommend the stock ends with a Super Yank 3500. This converter was made for a bolt-on or mild cammed car with 3.73 on street tires or drag radials.
I love mine!!

The Vig 3600 is actually a 4300 stall. That's pretty hardcore for a stock motor in a daily driver <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

You want something "streetable," have 3.73s, and don't show a track time or that you have nittos.
The answer is simple: SuperYank 3500 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Low STR for the 3.73s on the street launch and excellent performance from a roll.

YANK WHAT???? UMMMM throw your shift solenoids out of whack and make your tranny go south, NO THANKS! Your 3600 will FLASH aroud 4200 or 4300 not just stall that high, and it will even lock up around 35 MPH <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> gotta love those guys at PI. I ran mine with 3:42's and was great, but you will have to have some kind of drag radial or something to put it to the ground. Best of luck to ya.
I see you're in Dallas and running some G2 parts. Feel free to give me a call at the shop today, and I'll be glad to talk converters with you. I'm on my 9th converter in an LS1 (4 Vig and 5 Yanks), so I can give you some good comparisons. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
