Welcome! I went from an 87 Iroc to a 2000 T/A. How do you like that 2500 converter?

In both cars they work pretty damn good. The Iroc's TPI feels so good and of course die's on me after 4800RPM but that will soon change. The T/A feels great because it helps her get into the powerband so much faster. Since it doesn't have as much lowend as the TPI or the LT1 it helps out a lot. I like the LS but I don't think that I will ever get rid of the Iroc. So why not just have both. My LT1 was faster but that will change soon enough.
Thanks for the welcome.
