Default If I'm just doing 1/8th mile wouldn't 2.5 STR converter be the best option

I will be installing a Th350 soon, so since 2.5 STR converters are good for launch purposes but aren't very efficent up top, wouldn't they be best for 1/8th mile races since your top speed won't be near as high as a 1/4 mile race?

In other words as long as you hook on take off 2.5 STR should 95% of the time get the best E.T. in the 1/8h compared to a lower STR, when in the 1/4 mile race this might not be the case. Sound about right?

Honestly I would consult whoever you are purchasing your converter through and have them build a converter to your exact specifications to your car and intentions. There is no other way to order a converter or a cam.
