Default 3200 convertor w/ 2.73's

I'm putting a Yank ss3200 in my Vette in the next few weeks, and I was wondering if anybody has used this particular convertor w/ 2.73's. Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated.

The 2.73 gears will make it seem like a higher stall rating then it really is. For example, my first converter (2800 Vig.) seemed a little loose with 3.23s. But just moving up to 3.73s made a world of difference and the car drove almost stock, until you hit the go pedal.

because the 2.73 suck, the 3200 stall will really wake up the car big time. but i would suggest going with atleast some 3.42 or 3.73..

Good, because I'd like to do the stall before gears if I'm unable to do both at the same time. I'm thinking SS3600 with my 2.73's and eventually step it up to some 3.73's.
