Re: TC AND GEARS? 3.73s might be a great idea. If you plan on some serious launches you might save your cash for a 12-bolt.
As far as the converter choice, what tires, mods, and usage do you plan on?

Re: TC AND GEARS? Get the converter first and see if you like it. Once you have a Vig 3200, gears will not help that much. Maybe a tenth.

Re: TC AND GEARS? In response to the coolonel q.I'm thinking of some slicks for the track and zr for the street also considering forced induction and/or n2o. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Re: TC AND GEARS? I'd plan out your strategy before spending a lot of cash. Like the Colonel said, if you are going with power adders, I would not switch gears until you are ready to invest in a 12 bolt.
For now, I would keep the 2.73s, buy the Vig 3200 or a Yank PYE 3600 (if power adders are pretty certain), and get LS1Edit so you can gain full control over your tranny.
