Default Will this work?

Coming up this spring, I would like to cam my car. I really like the Polluter cam from tick performance, especially because the deluxe kit comes with everything that i'd need. I'd daily drive the car, but I only work a few miles away. I'll be upgrading to a FAST 92/92 soon to help the car breathe, along with an 85mm MAF and a 98mm FTP lid. Right now my car has a fully built 4L60e. The converter is a Midwest Racing converter, and its a little on the loose side. It is a 3800, but flashed closer to 4000 on the dyno. Is this big enough to handle that cam? I have one free refresh from Midwest, so i can up the size if I need to, but I wanna know if the 3800 would work before I pull the trans out to get the converter.

Yes the 110 LSA will help bring the RPM range down some.

Im sure thats enough comverter for that camshaft in a street car. I would talk to Tick themselves about converter stall. If they spec'd the cam, they should know what stall to use.

If you get it on a 110 Lsa you will need to flycut, if its on 112 you won't need to, (This is what Tick said on the thread they posted up when they came out with the Polluter)
