Default Best TC for 98?

Alright everyone, after reading many many posts on both LS1.com and LS1tech.com I was already to get a Vig3200 TC for my 98 SS. However, I'm now reading that some people had trouble with that converter in the 98's, and that the Yank3500(which ironically seems to cause some trouble in 2k plus year cars) may actually be better for my year. Any input and recommendations are greatly appreciated, thanks everyone.

I have a Yank ST3500 in my Formula. Dropped me from a 13.19 to a 12.21. That was the best mod I ever did....no codes or lockup issues. I would highly recommend this converter <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
