Default Biggest cam on a stock stall....C6

So, I've called every converter manufacturer that I can think of, no one is making a stall. Nor do they know when they will.

How big do you think I can go on the stocker for now??

You must have an A6 tranny, right?

You can go as big as you want, depending on the drivability issues you can tolerate.

DTE makes 4.10 gears now, those will definitely help if a converter isn't available yet.

I'd go with something like a 228/232 114 in the automatic. Keep it nice and quirk-free. Longtube headers are a must for a cam swap, to get full benefits.

Already have LT's. 4.10s and this tranny would be hell, that'd be like a 5.88??
